Hesitantly , and with some another step back , but the European economy shows signs of having left behind the worst of the crisis. After a disappointing third quarter, the eurozone GDP resumed the flight between October and December last year, growing by 0.3 %. This is not a big jump, but is somewhat higher than what analysts expected and confirmed as a trend : they are already nine consecutive months in which the European economy can exhibit positive growth rates , according to the first estimate just published European statistics agency Eurostat.
To explain this improvement must go to the major economies of the euro area . German GDP rose 0.4% , while France left the stagnation of the previous quarter to grow 0.3 %, the same percentage in Spain , as he had advanced the Bank of Spain . The good news from Germany is explained by the strong performance of foreign trade, with a stagnant public investment and private consumption slightly lower , while in France can be attributed to private consumption and investment recovery . The fourth quarter may further exhibit other positive note : the first time around 2013 that the eurozone GDP also grows year on year , that is, when compared to the same period in 2012.
The trend is positive, but growth is still too weak to lower the levels of unemployment in the eurozone still around 12%. " Today's data are good news , but the improvement is expected compared to just 0.1% . It is a breakthrough. And bigger countries like Italy continue with a growth rate too low "sums Bruegel researcher Andre Sapir .
Portugal , which is about to complete its rescue continues to mesh good macroeconomic figures to a much more worrisome social panorama , exhibited more robust growth than the German (0.5 %), while the Netherlands came to 0.7% . The recession appears to abandon even the laggards . Without knowing the data from Greece and Malta, only negative rates continue to Cyprus and Finland, which is incorporated caboose after chaining two consecutive quarters of declines, with a disastrous 0.8% between October and December.

The data are better if the focus is extended to the entire EU. The economy grew by 0.4 % 28 . To explain this trend, is the capital importance of the UK, which was maintained throughout 2013 in high growth rates .
Despite the improvement , Europe is far from being able to speak a full recovery. Unemployment remains at very high levels , with alarming situations such as Spain and Greece , a country where unemployment now affects 61 % of young people. Low inflation is another of the uncertainties and the effect of turbulence in emerging countries such as Argentina and Brazil may have. " We believe that Europe will not be affected , but if the situation deteriorates further , with a special focus on China , it could pose a greater risk," the economists at Goldman Sachs said in a report published yesterday , before knowing the data from Eurostat .
