Germany’s Bundesbank: Recent data were better overall than assumed in December

In its monthly economic report published on Monday, the German central bank, Bundesbank, noted that recent data releases were better overall than assumed in the December projections.

“Gross domestic product growth is likely to have roughly stagnated in the final quarter of 2022, exceeding earlier expectations,” the Bundesbank added and said that the economy was proving more resilient than expected amid easing stress on energy markets.
