Germany's gross domestic product (GDP) shrank by 0.1% in the third quarter, increasing the risk of a recession in Europe's largest economy. The decline was driven by a fall in consumer spending, while investment by companies into machinery and equipment made a positive contribution. This data is concerning for the entire eurozone as Germany is its largest economy.
