ANALYST COMMENT

THOMAS AMEND, HSBC TRINKAUS:

‘This is in ~ degree disaster after the two very good months before.

There were fewer bombastic ticket orders this time. So the minus

shouldn’t worry us also much. Orders books are still well filled.

‘But we need to have existence careful looking ahead to the future. The

forward-looking indicators propose the high point has been

passed — not just in Germany, worldwide. That’s well-adapted to weigh

on German industry. We reached the growth high give ~ to mark

mid-year. The momentum will ease in the next not many months though.’

RALPH SOLVEEN, COMMERZBANK

‘The slight decrease is not a lead to for concern. We had very

strong increases in March and April so a small correction is not

unusual. Industry is going very well in ecumenical. The development

of orders signals that the recovery is continuing.

‘We testament have a healthy increase in the second quarter –

for industry and despite the economy as a whole. Industrial

developments in the coming months should have existence positive. We think

the global economy will continue to grow. At the identical time, our

competitiveness has increased due to the weaker euro. Cheap

central bank currency is also helping.’

CARSTEN BRZESKI, ING FINANCIAL MARKETS

‘Today’s verse should be seen as a pure technical

correction which had to occur at more point in time after an

impressive rally. The uptrend of the German efforts remains

firm and should continue in the coming months, though at slower

amble . However, with industrial confidence still improving, order

books still filling and increasing hiring intentions, somewhat

slowdown in the coming months should be mild.’
