Germany S&P Global Manufacturing PMI EUR

Medium impact Updated after every release

What this release is

The Germany S&P Global Manufacturing PMI is a monthly survey-based indicator that assesses the health of the German manufacturing sector. It is published by S&P Global, with markiteconomics.com serving as the official source website.

Forex traders monitor this release because Germany’s manufacturing output is a significant component of the Eurozone economy. Stronger manufacturing activity can signal economic expansion, which may influence the European Central Bank’s monetary policy decisions. Conversely, weaker data might suggest economic contraction, potentially impacting the euro’s valuation.

This monthly release, which covers the business sector, often generates a medium impact on the market. Traders typically focus on the headline Purchasing Managers’ Index figure. Revisions to previous months’ data are also observed for their implications on economic trends.

How we measure: moves come from our own MT4 price feed and our archived minute bars, sampled 5, 15 and 60 minutes after each release against the pre-release price. No estimates, no third-party numbers. Releases where our feed had a gap are skipped, never guessed.

Reaction = EURUSD move 60 minutes after the release, measured from our own price history. Story links appear for releases our news desk covered; every release gets a row here whether or not it gets a story. Values from before our live tracking began are the current figures in the official statistical series, so they include later revisions; live rows record the number as printed.

Market statistics, not financial advice. All reaction figures are measured from our own price feed under our published methodology.
