Net trade contributed positively to the GDP, as exports stalled (vs -0.4% in Q1 2024), while imports dropped by 1.1 (vs 0.3%). Meanwhile, fixed investments decreased (-1.3% vs 0.4%), dragged down by a decline in residential and other buildings & structures. Additionally, household consumption slowed sharply (0.1% vs 0.8%). On the production side, improvement was primarily driven by the industry and services sector. On a yearly basis, GDP shrank by 0.5%, slowing from a downwardly revised 0.1% fall in the preceding quarter. Thus extending the period of contraction to eight consecutive quarters.
