Germany Raises GDP Forecasts: 1.3% This Year, 1.1% Next

The German government upgraded its growth forecast for 2026 to 1.3% and for 2027 to 1.1%, signaling improved economic momentum in Europe's largest economy. The revision suggests a more robust recovery than previously expected, potentially reducing pressure on the ECB to ease policy further. This marks a positive shift in the growth outlook for the eurozone, though the sustainability of the acceleration remains uncertain.
