16.12.202508:30:00UTC+00Germany's Manufacturing PMI Continues Downward Trend in December

In December 2025, Germany's manufacturing sector experienced a slight contraction as the HCOB Germany Manufacturing PMI recorded a new reading of 47.7. This marks a continued decline from the previous month’s figure of 48.2, reported in November 2025. The updated data, released on December 16, 2025, highlights ongoing challenges within the sector.

A PMI reading below 50 indicates a contraction in the manufacturing industry, and the drop to 47.7 suggests that Germany's manufacturers are struggling with persistent pressure. Factors potentially contributing to this downturn include supply chain disruptions, weakened global demand, or internal economic challenges that are impacting manufacturing output and business sentiment.

The dip in the PMI is a critical indicator for analysts and policymakers, as manufacturing is a crucial component of Germany's economy. The continued decline signals the need for close monitoring of economic policies and market conditions to stem further decreases and bolster manufacturing activity in the months ahead.
