EU Industrial Production Index Slips to 100.2 in Q2
Original: Eurostat EI_ISIND_Q Update: EU Industry Index at 100.4 in Q1 2026, 100.2 in Q2 - News and Statistics
Eurostat's quarterly industrial production index for the EU stands at 100.4 in the first quarter of 2026, easing slightly to 100.2 in the second quarter, according to newly released statistics. The marginal dip suggests industrial output in the bloc is roughly flat, prompting analysts to weigh whether the sector is stabilising or heading into renewed weakness amid ongoing concerns about European manufacturing competitiveness.
Why now: Fresh Eurostat data on EU industrial production has just been published, drawing attention to the direction of the bloc's manufacturing sector.
