BERLIN (AP) – German factory orders dropped 1.3% in November compared with the previous month, pushed down by a drop in foreign demand and low bulk orders.
The drop in orders, an important indicator for Europe’s biggest economy, followed a modest gain of 0.2% in October.
The Economy Ministry said Wednesday that orders from inside Germany were up 1.6%, but demand from eurozone countries dropped 3.3% and there was a 2.8% fall in orders from other countries.
