In Q3 of 2024, the aggregate short-term outlook of Danish companies remains in positive territory for the second quarter, with the index number almost positioning at a neutral level. The overall sentiment is especially driven by an improved sentiment with regards to sourcing from China, while outlook on sales in China is deteriorating.
The sentiment among respondents based in Denmark showed a shift towards optimism, with their index rising compared to Q2. In contrast, respondents based in China saw their index decline, reflecting a slight dip in sentiment. This marks a reversal of the previous quarter, where China-based respondents had a more positive outlook compared to those in Denmark.
