Despite the slowdown, PMI indicators suggest that France is not on the brink of an imminent recession. Business leaders are optimistic about an upturn in both industrial and service sectors starting this October. Moreover, they expect the construction sector to maintain its stability.
The French economy has demonstrated resilience amid global economic challenges. It has managed to withstand weaker Chinese demand and the energy crisis that occurred last winter. One key factor contributing to this resilience is the stabilization of supply difficulties and a drop in raw material costs.
