Germany continues to strengthen as the most powerful economy in Europe as it avoids a region-wide recession. Its Labor Office reports that the jobless rate fell to 6.7% in Mach.

US GDP has started to move up again, but it is unclear that the recovery will hold and that import traffic to America can stay high.
