Retail price expectations fell from 50.9 points to 49 points in March in Germany
In March, slightly fewer German companies planned price increases in the next three months than a month earlier, according to the data of the survey published on Wednesday by the German economic research institute ifo.
According to data published by ifo (ifo Institut – Leibniz-Institut für Wirtschaftsforschung an der Universität München e.V.) on Wednesday, price expectations for the entire economy in Germany fell to 27.2 points in March after 29.2 points in February. This was the sixth consecutive month of decline.
The indicator shows how many companies plan to raise prices in the next three months. It is calculated by subtracting the percentage of companies planning to cut prices from the percentage of companies planning to raise prices. ifo does not ask about the extent of the planned price changes.
“Companies have already passed on most of the increased costs to their customers, while demand is falling in almost all sectors of the economy. This should slowly moderate inflation in the coming months.”
– stated Timo Wollmershäuser, ifo’s chief economist.
