Results Germany 1st Quarter 2020

Expectation by Industry

The figures for the first quarter of 2020 show that the comparatively large Trade and Manufactured Goods sectors continue to have the most pessimistic expectations. Only Transportation and Storage have an even lower percentile rank. Agriculture and Scientific and Technical Services services also continue to have a difficult time.

At the other end of the scale, the Health and Social Work services have defended their top position for the past year, followed by Financial and Insurance services, which have been able to work their way up continuously for the past year.

Overall, however, there has been little movement in terms of sectors compared with our last survey.

The industry positions are interpreted as follows: The value indicates where this industry is in terms of the answers from all industries. A value above 50 means an overall positive rating of the industry. The higher the value, the more positive the industry was assessed.

Expectations by Region
