Latest Updates

Germany’s industrial output rose 0.8% month on month in November 2025, easing from a revised 2.0% increase in October and beating forecasts of a 0.4% decline. The sustained growth was driven mainly by a sharp rebound in the automotive sector (+7.8%) and gains in mechanical engineering (+3.2%) and machine maintenance and assembly (+10.5%). However, these were partly offset by a steep fall in energy production (-7.8%). Industrial production excluding energy and construction rose 2.1%, supported by capital goods (+4.9%), while continued contractions in intermediate goods (-0.8%) and consumer goods (-0.3%) weighed on overall momentum. Construction output also fell 0.8%. In the less volatile three-month comparison, activity from September to November was 0.7% higher than in the preceding three months. On an annual basis, total industrial production rose 0.8%, following a 1.0% increase in the previous period.
