This was just below forecasts of 49.6.<\/p>\n<p>The data suggests that the eurozone manufacturing sector is in a broad-based downturn. News orders fell as economic uncertainty and inflation rise.<\/p>\n<p>Looking ahead, attention will now shift towards eurozone wholesale inflation data, which is expected to show that PPI jumped to 43% annually in August, up from 37.9%. PPI is considered a lead indicator for CPI, which suggests that consumer prices will keep rising.
