Zona euro em recessão após seis meses de declínio
June 9, 2023 -
O PIB da zona euro declinou 0,1% nos primeiros três meses do ano
depois de ter recuado o mesmo no último trimestre de 2022 – tecnicamente definido como recessão.
Gross domestic product (GDP) for the 20-country eurozone fell by 0.1% in Q1 2023, after also dropping by 0.1% in Q4 2022 – two successive quarters of contraction being described as a technical recession.
However, Eurostat says Q1 2023 eurozone GDP was actually up 1.0% on 12 months ago, but lower than May’s forecast 1.3% growth.
Economists polled by Reuters, believe quarterly growth will modestly bounce back by 0.2% in the remaining three quarters of 2023.
