Yesterday's Recap
Equity markets delivered mixed results across the Eurozone with the DAX advancing 0.53% to 26,440.31 while the Euro Stoxx 50 eased 0.09% to 6,539.59 and the CAC 40 declined 0.16% to 8,636.80. The euro strengthened, lifting EUR/USD 0.49% to 1.16 and EUR/JPY 0.24% to 184.33. German 10-year Bund yields declined 2.51% to 2.97%, reflecting demand for duration amid stable growth data.
Recent French inflation figures showed July CPI holding at 2.4% year-on-year, matching consensus and keeping the Eurozone headline rate near 2.90%. Eurozone Q2 GDP growth confirmed at 0.4% quarter-on-quarter, supported by resilient domestic demand in Germany and France. Unemployment across the currency union stood at 6.30% as of June.
Wildfires and extreme heat continued to disrupt activity in Germany, France and Belgium, though markets priced limited immediate economic damage.
The Day Ahead
Attention turns to Germany’s ZEW Economic Sentiment Index, expected to rise to 30 from 26.3, offering a fresh gauge of investor confidence. Spain will release its June trade balance, while the Netherlands reports its July unemployment rate. Later in the week, French and German S&P Global flash PMIs for August will provide early signals on manufacturing and services momentum, with German manufacturing seen at 52.0.
French business confidence and Dutch consumer confidence readings will round out the data slate. Markets will also monitor any further comments from ECB speakers ahead of the September meeting.
Other Economic Notes
Persistent heat and wildfires across Germany, France and Belgium have raised concerns about supply-chain disruptions and tourism losses, though early earnings calls show limited aggregate impact. Eurozone inflation at 2.90% and unemployment at 6.30% continue to support a gradual policy path. German industrial foundations face renewed pressure from weaker external demand, particularly from China.
Regional divergence remains evident, with Spain’s labor market and France’s price stability contrasting softer Italian and Dutch readings. Policymakers will watch whether these supply shocks feed into core prices.
