German Industry Sees Unexpected Order Increase
German industrial companies received a lot more orders recently. This is the second increase in a row. Economists are watching this closely because of worries about the economy.
In June, German industrial companies, especially those making machines, saw a big increase in orders. This growth was due to orders from the Bundeswehr and for infrastructure projects. The VDMA, the German Engineering Federation, reported that these orders are coming from outside Europe. This unexpected rise in orders suggests the German industry is getting stronger.
