European Union · Contributions to GDP growth

What moved GDP from one quarter to the next, in percentage points: household consumption, government consumption, investment, changes in inventories and net trade (exports minus imports). The five bars add up to the quarter's GDP growth (volume, seasonally adjusted). Quarterly national accounts: Eurostat (namq_10_gdp) for EU countries, OECD for the others.· Contributions to the change in GDP volume vs the previous quarter, in percentage points, seasonally and calendar adjusted (Eurostat, namq_10_gdp, unit CON_PPCH_PRE, for France, Germany, Italy and the EU; OECD Quarterly National Accounts for the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada and Japan). The five bars add up to the quarter’s GDP growth, up to rounding; the total shows in the tooltip. Net trade = exports minus imports: rising imports pull it down.· Changes in inventories swing widely from quarter to quarter and absorb part of the statistical discrepancies; they often offset net trade (imports put into stock weigh on one and support the other). Read the two together.· Annual view: Eurostat’s published contributions to the growth of annual GDP in volume (nama_10_gdp, unit CON_PPCH_PRE, not seasonally adjusted). They are not the sum of the four quarterly contributions: annual growth also depends on how the previous year ended.· Licence : Eurostat reuse policy (CC BY 4.0) · source: Eurostat, quarterly national accounts
