Eurozone business activity has reached a seven-month high, prompting companies to take on more staff, a closely watched survey indicates.

Markit's composite flash purchasing managers' index for February hit 53.5, up from 52.6 in January.

Any figure over 50 indicates expansion, while anything under 50 points to a contraction.

Firms are hiring staff at the fastest rate since August 2011 to meet demand, the survey said.

Customer-facing service companies performed particularly well, Markit said, outpacing growth in manufacturing output.

Is that a Kraut in the picture? Says it all, if so.

It's mostly governments and big banks that are worried about deflation and the Greek crisis, for obvious reasons.
