According to data released by S&P Global on the 24th, the initial value of the Eurozone's comprehensive purchasing managers' index (PMI) for October unexpectedly fell to its lowest point in nearly three years. Experts point out that the risk of a technical recession in the eurozone economy in the second half of the year is significantly increasing. With the arrival of winter, the pressure of energy supply shortages in Europe will once again become prominent, which may make the economic growth prospects even more bleak.
