Business conditions ease slightly, expectations slip

The business situation in Q2/2026 fell to 82.3 (from 83.7 in Q1/2026), a drop of 1.4 points. This is not a collapse, but a clear signal that the stabilization seen at the start of the year will not automatically continue. More significant is the trend in business expectations: they slip from 87.6 in Q1/2026 to 80.3 in Q2/2026, which is a sharp drop of 7.3 points.
