Economic Buzz: German manufacturing activity slightly down in September

The manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) came in at 53.9 in September, down 0.4 points from the previous month. Output increased significantly, as new orders grew. Expectations also improved, almost reaching levels seen before the Middle East conflict.
