German exports jumped 4.7% month on month in July, as the post covid recovery continues. The pick-up in demand echoes the strong exports reported in China and is a descent sign that Germany\u2019s economy has returned to economic growth after GDP shrank 10% in the second quarter.<\/p>\n<p>Imports were less encouraging increasing just 1.1% a sign that domestic demand is still weak. Notably, imports and exports in the Eurozone\u2019s largest economy are still 11% lower than where they were a year ago.<\/p>\n<p>Delving deeper into the report, trade with China has rebounded strongly, while imports from the UK have plunged by 25% year on year.<\/p>\n<p>The data comes after German industrial production figures in the previous session, revealed that output lost pace in July. German industrial production rose much less than expected with output remaining well below pre-covid levels<\/p>\n<p>Attention will now turn to the Eurozone GDP reading for the second quarter.
