July 23, 2010 - Many export-oriented economies in the G7 and Western Europe have seen an upgrade in their 2010 forecasts on the back of a revival in global demand, particularly from the developing economies. This has helped countries in the Euro zone such as Germany and Italy, countering worries over sovereign debt which had pushed the euro to below US$1.20, in turn increasing competitiveness abroad and supporting the Euro area's manufacturing industry. The German economy is predicted to expand by 2.0% this year, leading the Euro zone expansion of 1.1%.
