According to a flash estimate, GDP growth flatlined in quarterly terms in Q1 as a record breaking Covid-19 wave led to a contraction in private spending. Moreover, the external sector was likely weighed on by the breakout of war in Ukraine. Turning to this quarter, business conditions improved in April, after moderating on average in the prior quarter. The composite PMI rose to its highest level since January 2018 due to easing Covid-19 curbs, while business confidence improved in the same month amid a strong increase in order books. Moreover, on 24 April, Emmanuel Macron became the first president to win reelection in 20 years after beating Marine Le Pen in the second round of the presidential elections. Macron is expected to continue with his business-friendly labor market reforms and tough economic sanctions on Russia.France - Population Data
