The euro area’s economy barely grew in the second quarter of 2025, underscoring weak momentum across the 20‑nation bloc, while the United States posted a sharp rebound over the same period.
Eurostat said on July 30 that seasonally adjusted GDP in the eurozone rose by 0.1 percent from the previous quarter, while output in the wider 27‑member European Union (EU) gained 0.2 percent. Both readings marked a steep slowdown from the first quarter, when growth reached 0.6 percent and 0.5 percent, respectively.
