GERMANY: Deeper Q4 GDP Data Sees Trade Services Sector Strongest; Finance Weak
Feb-25 09:09
A deeper view into the German Q4 GDP data suggests broad-based weakness in the German private sector:
- Gross value added (GVA) by industry broadly affirms the prevailing narrative: weak industry (IP excl. construction -1.1% Q/Q vs -1.8% Q3, fourth negative consecutive quarter, notably -7.0% Y/Y), also weak construction (-0.9% Q/Q vs -1.3% Q3).
- Services sectors were overall weak, too: Trade, transport, accommodation and food at +0.5% Q/Q (-0.1% Q3), information and communication +0.4% (-0.4% Q3), Financial and insurance activities -2.1% (-1.0% Q3), real estate services -0.5% (-0.6% Q3), business services -0.3% (-0.6% Q3), public services, education, health +0.3% (+1.4% Q3).
- Productivity was rather weak again and saw little rebound after the stale Q2: GDP per employee -0.2% Q/Q vs +0.2% Q3, GDP per hour worked declined 0.5% Q/Q (-0.1% Q3).
- Consumer caution appeared to have seen little movement as per a broadly unchanged savings ratio vs Q3 at 11.5% in seasonally-adjsuted terms.
