Germany December industrial production -3.1% vs -0.7% m/m expected

  • Latest data released by Destatis - 7 February 2023
  • Prior +0.2%; revised to +0.4%

That's a big miss on estimates as German industrial output suffers towards the end of the year, after a bit of a recovery early on in 2022 from the pandemic slump. That has resulted in the calendar-adjusted production index being 3.9% lower than in December 2021. That's not a good sign that economic prospects are improving in the manufacturing sector.
