In a surprising turn for economic observers, Germany's gross domestic product (GDP) recorded a 0.2% increase in the third quarter, according to preliminary figures released by the statistics office on Wednesday.

This growth defied the predictions of analysts surveyed by Reuters, who had anticipated a 0.1% decline in quarter-on-quarter GDP in adjusted terms.
