Having softened in the previous two months, French private sector growth accelerated at the start of the second quarter says Markit

At 56.9, up from 56.3 in March, the IHS Markit Flash France Composite Output Index continued to signal an above-trend rate of expansion. The acceleration in overall growth was indicative of sharper rates of expansion in both the manufacturing and services sectors. The rate of increase in the latter continued to outstrip the former, but both remained marked and above their respective long-run averages nonetheless.
