“We think that the IFO is more likely to be in line with the PMIs, so look for the headline to fall to 93.3 (mkt 94.5), which would make for a new post-financial crisis low.”
“If confirmed, then the survey data is pointing to a steeper Eurozone slowdown in Q3 than the meager 0.2% q/q growth rate reported in Q2, suggesting that the ECB will still have to deliver further stimulus beyond what was already announced earlier this month.”
