Eurozone Sentix Investor Confidence index climbed for the fourth consecutive month to -12.9, marking its highest point since April 2023. Both Current Situation Index, now at -20.0 (its peak since June 2023), and Expectations Index, reaching -5.5 (the highest since February 2022), have shown similar upward trends, indicating gradual improvement in investor sentiment across the region.
Despite these positive trends, Sentix highlighted that the Eurozone continues to grapple with recessionary pressures. For a genuine economic turnaround, the expectation values need to shift into positive territory.
Germany emerges as a primary concern, acting as the “negative economic pull” for Eurozone. Germany’s investor confidence dipping further from -26.1 to -27.1. Current Situation Index worsened to -39.3, but there’s a silver lining as Expectations Index improved to -14.0, reaching its highest since April 2023.
