Germany's industry has been in a structural recession since 2023: the Manufacturing PMI hovered mostly between 41 and 44 in 2025/2026. The Eurozone Manufacturing PMI Final for August 2026 is expected below 49 (open prediction) — Germany typically shows a 4–6 point divergence below the eurozone average (ongoing automotive crisis, energy costs, weak export demand from China). No direct Polymarket market; calibration based on historical Germany vs. eurozone divergence.
