EUROZONE DATA: From the IHS Markit Eurozone manuf August PMI release:

'""Eurozone factories reported a further solid production gain in August, but

prospects dimmed further as growth of new orders hit a two-year low and worries

about the outlook deepened... One positive was a cooling of price pressures,

which fed through to the smallest rise in factory selling prices for a year and

could help bring consumer inflation down in coming months."

- 'There remained a notable divergence between the strongest and weakest

performing manufacturing sectors at the country level. The Netherlands and

Ireland led the way, with growth rates both ticking up since July. Austria and

Germany continued to enjoy robust rates of expansion, whilst Greece, France and

Spain all turned in solid growth performances. In contrast, Italy registered its

worst manufacturing PMI reading for two years, with operating conditions little

changed since July.'
