France September Flash Composite PMI Beats at 51.2 as Services Jump to 51.4
AI take
The headline beat masks a clear divergence: services did the heavy lifting while manufacturing slipped, so the composite's return above 50 rests on a single engine. For crypto and RWA markets, this matters mainly through the rates channel — a firmer French print feeds into the broader euro-area growth picture and how the ECB is read. Whether manufacturing stabilizes or services alone carries the index is the open question.
