👀 🪖 🏗️ Searches for jobs in the defense sector surged amid the debate on easing Germany’s debt brake for military spending (graph 2). While interest in construction jobs showed a weaker response, employment stimulus from the fiscal package is expected as plans for infrastructure spending take shape .

↘️ Job postings in Germany declined by 7.2% in Q1. This marks a further acceleration of the downward trend we’ve seen in recent quarters (graph 1)

🌐 Compared to other major economies, Germany’s job market is currently showing particularly weak momentum.

So happy to see this data publication we started in 2019 continue. Well done, WiE Research team!

In the public sector, we find a women’s share of 11.7 % for central
bank governors, 16.5% for finance ministers, 21.4% for national economic advisory
councils and a share of 22.7% among chief economists of international economic institutions.

In the private sector, 20.9% of chief economists of the biggest global companies are women, 7.1% for insurance companies and
26.3% for banks. BTW, Indeed has a super cool chief economist: Svenja Gudell!

Das dachte ich mir auch. Die Argumente gehen teilweise so aneinander vorbei, das hätte ich von einer KI nicht erwartet.

Luckily, the European Central Bank can still be reached by Fax 🥲

The data, along with the codebook, can now be found on the DIW website and can be used freely by the scientific community.
