Kommentar: 48 Milliarden Euro, die der Krisenstimmung widersprechen
Google, Globalfoundries, Uber und Saudi-Arabien investieren gewaltige Beträge in Deutschland. Was die internationalen Geldgeber sehen, sehen wir oft selbst nicht mehr.
The headline "48 Billion Euros Defy the Crisis Mood" highlights the significant investments in Germany despite widespread concerns. Google has committed 5.5 billion euros to a data center in Dietzenbach, Hess. The chipmaker Globalfoundries is pouring 1.1 billion euros into expanding its factory in Dresden. Uber plans to invest 2 billion euros in its German operations.
Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia has announced an injection of 40 billion euros. These four billion-euro investments occurred before the "Invest in Germany" conference kicks off in October with international financiers. This is the real story behind Chancellor Friedrich Merz's recent meeting with nearly 70 executives from the "Made for Germany" initiative.
The world does not doubt Germany's location; the checkbooks of investors remain largely open. They are confident Germany will overcome the crisis, and they particularly see the nation's real strengths. These include a Triple-A credit rating, a unique scientific research base, high-quality products, the Middle Ages' high-tech crafts, and innovative startups.
Once the gloom of a doomsday scenario in the country is dispelled, it becomes clear why the chancellor speaks of Germany as the "best investment location in the world."
