Industrial Production in Germany rebounded less-than-expected in May, the official data showed on Tuesday; although confirmed that the manufacturing sector in Europe's largest economy is gradually recovering from the lockdown-imposed slump.            

The industrial output came in at +7.8% MoM, the federal statistics authority Destatis said in figures adjusted for seasonal and calendar effects, vs. a 10.0% rebound expected and -17.9% last.

On an annualized basis, the German industrial production arrived at -19.3% in May versus -11.1% expected and -25.3% booked in April.

In the last hour, the IFO institute said its production index climbed to 4.3 points in June from -19.5 in May, marking the second biggest increase since German reunification three decades ago.

Changes in industrial production are widely followed as a major indicator of strength in the manufacturing sector. A high reading is seen as positive (or bullish) for the EUR, whereas a low reading is seen as negative (or bearish).
