FX.co ★ German Consumer Sentiment Edges Higher in February Thomson Reuters IPSOS PCSI

Germany’s consumer confidence ticked up in February, with the Thomson Reuters IPSOS Primary Consumer Sentiment Index (PCSI) rising to 47.07, up from 46.35 in January 2026.

The latest reading, updated on 12 February 2026, signals a modest improvement in German households’ perceptions of their personal finances, economic conditions, and investment climate compared with the start of the year. While the index remains below the 50-point threshold that would typically indicate broadly positive sentiment, the consecutive gain suggests consumers are becoming slightly more optimistic as 2026 progresses.
