Today’s survey reported that investor sentiment in the eurozone fell unexpectedly in February, as the economy was affected by the lockdown measures aimed at curbing the pace of Covid-19 cases, unlike other regions in the world that achieved further recovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sentex Euro-zone index fell below zero, dropping from 1.3 in January to minus 0.2. A Reuters poll had forecast a reading of 1.9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sentix said, \u201cthe EU order debacle and the resulting slower pace of vaccination are weighing on the mind and exposing the bureaucratic deficits in Euroland. As a result, the EU economy is losing touch with the other regions of the world, which are continuing their recovery course in the month of February.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It also warned, \u201ca permanent prolongation of the lockdown could become a problem because the difference between expectation and the current situation (the so-called expectation gap) is extremely high! There is a potential for a temporary disillusionment here. Fatal would be in any case a repeated demolition of the expectation component. The consequence would be a renewed recession.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The index of expectations fell to 31.5 from a high of 33.5 recorded in January, while the current conditions index reached negative 27.5, down from minus 26.5 in January.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
