GERMAN DATA: ZEW Headline Expectations Fall in January

GERMAN DATA
Data BulletEurozoneGermanyCEEMEABulletMarketsFixed Income BulletsForeign Exchange Bullets

The German ZEW expectations index fell to 10.3 in January, compared to a consensus estimate of 15.1, and December's 15.7, indicating a broad stalling at a relatively low level. The current situation index meanwhile ticked up a bit, to -90.4, outperforming consensus of -93.1 but remains bleak.

  • A wider update to German sentiment will follow later this week with the January flash PMIs, and Monday's IFO Business Climate.
  • The ZEW index is based on a survey of "experts from banks, insurance companies and financial departments of selected corporations [which] have been interviewed about their assessments and forecasts for important international financial market data" - so the index can exhibit elevated levels of correlation with German stock indices as the DAX.
