Euro-zone industrial production rose by 0.2% in September, recovering only a small portion of the 1.1% drop seen in August. The latest data shows a limited rebound after last month’s sharp decline.
The increase came in below expectations. Analysts had predicted a 0.7% gain for September. The weaker-than-expected result highlights ongoing challenges for the region’s industrial sector.
While September showed a slight improvement, the broader trend remains soft. Recent economic indicators point to continued pressure on manufacturing activity across the euro zone.
Overall, the partial recovery has not changed the region’s weak industrial outlook. The latest figures signal that the euro-zone manufacturing base is still struggling to regain momentum.
