Although it will do little to change the dialogue ahead of the April election, France's composite reading of 53.8 is the highest in this short time series (three-years-old). Consider that last January the composite was at 50.2, and in June it was at 49.6.  The gains came from services not manufacturing. 

By contrast, the German composite slipped to 54.7 from 55.2.  Services were a drag, falling to 53.2 from 54.3.  Manufacturing, on the other hand, rose to 56.5 from 55.6, matching its record high set in January 2014.   We would not want to make a big deal of the decline in German composite reading.  The average from Q4 16 was 55.1 and Q3 53.8.  The 12-month average is 54.3.
