Meanwhile, Services PMI fell from 54.2 in May to 53.5 in June, missing the market expectations of 54.4 in the reported period. The measure also hit a two-month low.
The HCOB Preliminary German Composite Output Index came in at 50.6 in June vs. 52.7 estimated and 52.4 reported in May. The gauge was at its weakest in two months.
