The unemployment rate in the euro-zone fell slightly in October according to the Eurostat data. The unemployment rate fell to 8.4% in October from 8.5% in the previous month. The rate followed economists’ expectations. The decline in the unemployment rate gives a good signal for positive shifts in the eurozone economy.

According to published data from Caixin Media, China’s service sector PMI rose to 57.8 in November, and up from 56.8 in October. Most economists associate this growth in the service sector in November with the strong development of new businesses, which have been developing at the fastest pace in more than a decade. Further recovery in consumer demand issue also provided strong support to the PMI in the Chinese services sector. The Chinese economy is demonstrating recovery from the pandemic consequences, making China one of the most investment-attractive countries at the moment.
