Both the current situation and the expectation values of the US economy have slowed this month. From the per-spective of investors surveyed by sentix thus, show in the US economy increasingly sanding marks, which the strong dollar may well explain. Somewhat surprisingly, however, is that we measure a significant damper for the German economy. Particularly as the rest of the euro zone is in a robust constitution. For the Euro zone, the current situation index rises to its highest level since 2011. Furthermore, the overall index improves as well.
Headlines of the month
- In April, the Eurozone economy improves further. The composite index rises again to +20 points (+1.4) and the current situation index climbs to the highest level since July 2011 (+9).
- The German economy falls back against the euro trend by 8.1 points to 31.4 index points. However, this does not change the overall robust state of the German economy.
- For the US economy, some USD caused considerable stress marks show-up. A downturn scenario is approaching. In contrast, the rest of the world is in a more stable shape.
