Abstract

Die Konjunktur hat sich seit dem Jahreswechsel abgekühlt. Die Zuversicht der Unternehmen ist in den vergangenen Monat ausweislich Umfragen des ifo Instituts spürbar zurückgegangen. Auch die Auftragseingänge sind seit Jahresbeginn deutlich gesunken. Die langsamere konjunkturelle Gangart zeigte sich in der Zuwachsrate des Bruttoinlandsprodukts im ersten Quartal, die mit 0,3 Prozent deutlich niedriger ausfiel als es die Frühindikatoren noch vor einigen Monaten angezeigt hatten. Vor diesem Hintergrund stellt sich die Frage, ob es sich dabei nur um eine kurze Schwächephase oder bereits den Beginn eines Abschwungs handelt.
