German industry is losing more than 10,000 jobs every month, according to a May report by EY. Industrial output declined by around 10% between February 2022 and early 2026, with energy-intensive sectors plunging by more than 15%.
Germany’s trade balance with China in capital goods slid from a surplus of roughly 750 million euros to a €500 million deficit between mid-2024 and August 2025 on a 12-month rolling average, according to New York-based Apollo Global Management. Germany’s machine-tools exports to China slumped by around one-third in the first quarter from a year earlier.

Nah, pessimism is widespread in Germany, as the reaction to the article in this thread shows:

The entire West is doomed, each country has kind of its own unique decline story, and some will last longer than others. But the root problem is the same: smart elites no longer have many kids.
Still, those expecting Germany to be a uniform hellscape should also consider that a lot of rural Germany still looks like this:

I spent the summers of my childhood in a village like that in Rheinland-Pfalz and it still looks the same. Not many immigrants, either.
