Germany September ZEW survey current conditions -79.4 vs -75.0 expected | Forexlive

• Prior -71.3
• Expectations -11.4 vs -15.0 expected
• Prior -12.3

That’s the lowest reading since August 2020 as the German economy continues to stutter amid growing risks of a deeper recession. The outlook reading was better than estimated and an improvement from August but is still a negative reading, so there’s not much optimism in that I would say.
