Activity among Eurozone firms suffered its steepest
contraction since June 2009, according to a survey.
The Markit Flash Eurozone Purchasing Managers' (PMI)
Composite Output Index fell to 45.9 in September, the
lowest for 39 months, from 46.3 in August. The composite
figure combines services and manufacturing activity and a
figure below 50 indicates contraction. The results indicated
the Eurozone was heading back into recession.
"The Eurozone downturn gathered further momentum
in September, suggesting that the region suffered the
worst quarter for three years," said Chris Williamson,
Markit's chief economist.
"The flash PMI is consistent with GDP contracting by
0.6% in the third quarter and sending the region back
into a technical recession."
However, while there were falls in production and
new orders across the Eurozone as a whole, Germany's
rate of decline slowed "substantially”. The HSBC flash
China manufacturing PMI rose from 47.6 in August to
47.8 in September. But the French composite PMI figure
fell to 44.1 in September, the lowest reading since April
2009, from 48.0 in August. The employment in France
also fell substantially. And there are few signs of demand
to stimulate growth in France.

Background
欧洲主权债务危机概要
http://business.sohu.com/s2010/zhuquanzhaiwu/
 肇始:2008年10月,冰岛主权债务问题浮出水面,其后是中东欧国家,由于救助
及时未酿成较大的国际金融动荡。
 爆发:2009年12月,全球三大评级公司标普、穆迪和惠誉分别下调希腊的主权债
务评级,此后欧洲多个国家也开始陷入危机,“欧洲五国 PIIGS” (葡萄牙、意大
利、爱尔兰、希腊、西班牙) 的信用评级被调低,经济下滑,债台高筑,整个欧洲
面临严峻考验。
 救助:2010年5月10日,欧盟27国财长被迫决定设立总额为7500亿欧元的救助机
制,帮助可能陷入债务危机的欧元区成员国,防止危机继续蔓延。
 现状:严格地说,欧元区16个成员中,无一个国家的政府赤字目前在GDP的3%以
内;它们的平均赤字在GDP的7%以上。除希腊以外,爱尔兰、意大利、西班牙、
葡萄牙的赤字和债务问题都很突出。
