- Prior 114.7. Revised to 103.3
- Current conditions 105.7 vs 106.0 exp. Prior 125.9. Revised to 106.6
- Expectations 98.7 vs 99.5 exp. Prior 104.4. Revised to 100.00
Very big revisions lower.
IFO comments;
- We do not see April survey data as a change in trend for the German economy
- 5th drop in a row is a sign of normalisation (Eh?)
- We are far from a recession
- Sees Q1 growth at 0.4% vs 0.6% in Q4
