EME Macro/Strategy: Something is turning
In February, the economic sentiment surveys released by the European Commission signalled a potential change of trend. The aggregate sentiment index rose in the CEE, but stayed weak in the core Eurozone. The industrial sector maintains a pessimistic, and worsening, stance towards the future in most countries and hiring appetite weakened further in most countries. The picture is mixed in the services sector, however: in most cases it is still improving in the construction sector, and showed an improvement in most countries among consumers. The latter, in particular, is a noticeable change of direction after almost a year of weakness.
