Turns out Germany's economy had a stronger start to the year than anyone thought—revised data shows growth in Q1 was double the initial estimates. While still not exactly booming, it's a welcome sign of resilience after last year's struggles.
Editor’s Note: For a country that's been stuck in economic stagnation, this upward revision is a glimmer of hope. It suggests Germany might be slowly shaking off its slump, which matters not just for Europe's largest economy but for the broader EU, which often takes cues from Germany's performance. Still, experts aren't popping champagne yet—structural challenges like high energy costs and weak industrial demand haven't disappeared.
