0.7% Rise Recorded by German GDP in Third-Quarter

The German gross domestic production recorded a 0.7% rise in the third-quarter of the current fiscal year as firms "replenished inventories" and spent more on machinery and equipment. While re-stocking nudged the GDP up by 1.5%, investment in machinery and plant contributed to a 0.1% growth.

The quarterly rise has been the second consecutive growth recorded by the country's GDP, after registering a 0.4% growth for the second quarter.

Companies across the country have started stocking up again, on the back of rising global demands as the recession slides away. Factories have also accelerated production and manufacturing. To support the economy, Chancellor Angela Merkel’s Government is looking to spend as many as 85 Billion Euros ($126 Billion). All these factors put together have managed to pull Germany out of the recession in the third quarter, which has in turn managed to pull out the Eurozone, which includes 16 major European economies, out of its worst financial crisis since World War II.

Although this has been a delightful news, experts have been quick to warn that the economy is still very fragile and unstable, and these figures should not be considered permanent, just as yet. "The expansion rates we’re seeing now aren’t sustainable because they’re driven by short-term effects and stimulus measures”, said Alexander Koch, chief German economist at UniCredit in Munich. “Production and growth won’t return to pre-crisis levels before mid-2012".
