BERLIN—Investor morale in the eurozone was essentially unchanged in August from the previous month, with a slight rise too little to stave off fears of recession in the 19-country currency bloc, a survey showed on Monday.

Sentix’s index for the eurozone inched up to -25.2 points from -26.4 in July. A Reuters poll had pointed to an August reading of -24.7.
