EME Macro/Strategy: A W-shaped recovery ahead?

In May, the business surveys unfolded roughly in line with what we had anticipated in April and what we have picked up from the Czech Republic recently (please see our flash note for further details, published on 26 May).
Overall economic confidence was pretty much unchanged relative to April, with some improvements in the industrial sector and among consumers. The other sectors saw a further deterioration and the construction sector, in our view, is facing at least a few more months of worsening sentiment, before we should consider having hit the bottom.
