Eurozone Retail Purchasing Managers Index (PMI)

Latest Release

Jul 05, 2018

Actual

51.8

51.7

The Retail Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) measures the activity level of purchasing managers in the Retail sector. A reading above 50 indicates expansion in the sector; below 50 indicates contraction. Traders watch these surveys closely as purchasing managers usually have early access to data about their company’s performance, which can be a leading indicator of overall economic performance. A higher than expected reading should be taken as positive/bullish for the EUR while a lower than expected reading should be taken as negative/bearish for the EUR.
