German Exports Rebound as Shipments to U.S. Increase for First Time in Six Months
Exports to the US rose nearly 12% in September, pushing overall exports up 1.4%, the first increase since June amid tariff-related challenges and weaker Chinese demand.
- Data published Friday indicate Germany's exports climbed 1.4% to 131.1 billion , exceeding the 0.5% expected, FactSet reported.
- After months of tariff-related declines, US demand recovered as exports to the United States rose nearly 12% month-on-month, the Federal Statistical Office reported Friday.
- Despite the overall gain, exports to China fell 2.2%, reflecting weaker demand and growing competition, while German imports from China rose more than 6%, following a recent five-month decline.
- Carsten Brzeski of ING said 'German exports are not falling off a cliff' but added the September rise is too weak to dispel concerns about persistent structural weakness.
- As imports expanded faster than exports, the trade surplus fell, with the monthly rise in imports the biggest since January, led in part by China shipments.
