Who thought the collapse of the sentix economic indices in January were a one-time event will be disappointed with the February data. Although the values for Asia ex Japan recover something, this month results do not shape a fundamentally new image. In particular, the loss of momentum in Germany and the United States weighs heavily and stresses that the global economy is now in a very fragile state.
Headlines of the month
- The sentix economic index for the euro area falls again in February 2016. The overall index lost 3.6 points to +6.0 points.
- The values for the current assessment as well as the expectation values are under pressure. The former locomotive Germany cools noticeably.
- While the values for Asia ex Japan were somewhat overstated last month and it comes here a slight recovery, all other global regions remain in a negative fairway. The global economy is thus currently on the brink, led by a US economic downturn!
