(my two cents) #Germany is importing #deflation, overwhelmingly via energy. So despite weak growth, #Germany is getting a real income windfall from cheaper #energy imports, chart @economics https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-01-31/euro-rally-is-latest-risk-to-ecb-s-inflation-outlook?srnd=phx-economics-v2
