The Centre for European Economic Research (ZEW) announced that Germany's ZEW Economic Sentiment Index for April plunged from the previous reading of -0.5 to -17.2, far below market expectations of a decline to -5.8. Germany's ZEW Current Situation Index for April fell from the previous reading of -62.9 to -73.7, also worse than market expectations of -70.5. ZEW President Professor Achim Wambach commented on the latest survey results, stating that economic expectations are slipping into negative territory. The impact of the Iran war on the German economy extends far beyond rising prices: companies are concerned about long-term energy supply shortages, which is dampening investment and weakening the effectiveness of government stimulus measures.
