ألمانيا الإنتاج الصناعي (شهريا)

German industrial production dropped 2.5% month-over-month in September 2024, exceeding the expected 1% fall and following a 2.9% growth in the previous period. The decline was mainly attributed to the negative contribution in most sectors of the manufacturing industry, particularly the automotive industry (-7.8%). At the same time, production in energy-intensive industries declined by 3.3%, largely due to a downturn in the chemical sector. The less volatile three-month-on-three-month comparison showed that production was 2.2% lower from July to September compared to the prior three months. On a yearly basis, industrial output sank by 4.6%, slipping further from a 3% decline in August.
