The GfK Consumer Climate Indicator in Germany increased to -0.3 heading into July 2021, the highest level since August 2020 and well above market expectations of -4.0, as consumers became more optimistic and willing to buy following the relaxation of coronavirus-induced restrictions. The income expectations sub-index increased by 14.6 points to 34.1 and the gauge for economic outlook climbed 17.3 points to 58.4, its highest level in a decade. In addition, consumers’ propensity to buy, however, rose only moderately (up 3.4 points to 13.4). “Despite the opening or withdrawal of restrictions, a number of industries – especially in the services sector – are still severely restricted,” GfK consumer expert Rolf Buerkl said in a statement.
