German investor sentiment was in positive territory in January for the first time since the Ukraine geopolitical tensions began as signs point to a milder recession over the winter months than initially feared, the ZEW economic research institute. The institute's economic sentiment index rose to 16.9 from minus 23.3 in December. Economy Minister Robert Habeck said in an interview with broadcaster Welt TV he expects Germany to avoid a recession, while the BDI industry association forecast a 0.3% contraction this year.
