Probability
57%

The Eurozone grew ~1.2-1.5% YoY in Q1 2026. Positive Q2 factors: Germany recovery, stable domestic demand in France/Spain, energy price relief through May 2026. Hormuz crisis (from June) will likely impact Q3 more than Q2. ECB rate 2.25% is restrictive but not recessionary. IMF 2026 Eurozone GDP forecast: +1.3%.

Data basis for this prediction
  • Eurostat BIP Q1 2026 Schnellschaetzung: Eurozone YoY ~1,2-1,5% (Eurostat, April 2026)
  • IWF World Economic Outlook April 2026: Eurozone BIP-Prognose +1,3%
  • EZB Einlagensatz 2,25% nach Erhoehung 11. Juni 2026 (ECB Pressemitteilung ecb.mp260611)

Verdict: Miss
Die Eurostat-Schnellschätzung vom 30. Juli 2026 (ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/products-euro-indicators/w/2-30072026-ap) weist für die Eurozone im Q2 2026 ein BIP-Wachstum von lediglich +1,0 % YoY aus – deutlich unter dem Schwellenwert von 1,3 %. Auch die Basisannahme der Vorhersage war falsch: Das YoY-Wachstum im Q1 2026 lag bei nur +0,5 % (nicht den angenommenen 1,2–1,5 %), was den Ausgangspunkt für Q2 erheblich schwächer machte. Quartalsseitig legte die Eurozone +0,4 % QoQ zu (besser als die erwarteten +0,2 %), doch reichte dies nicht aus, um das YoY-Ziel zu erreichen. Deutschland, Frankreich und Italien wuchsen je nur +0,2 % QoQ – die erhoffte kräftigere Erholung Deutschlands blieb aus.
