21.08.202607:30:00UTC+00Germany’s Manufacturing Momentum Builds as HCOB PMI Climbs to 54.1 in August

Germany’s manufacturing sector extended its recovery in August, with the HCOB Germany Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) rising to 54.1. The latest reading, dated 21 August 2026, marks an acceleration from July 2026, when the index stood at 52.2.

The move further above the 50-point threshold, which separates expansion from contraction, signals strengthening conditions in Germany’s factory sector over the summer period. The back-to-back increases in July and August suggest improving sentiment and activity levels among manufacturers, adding a positive data point to the outlook for Europe’s largest economy.
