Watching German business news today (via N-24 network).....inflation now rated at 3.8-percent....highest point since 2008 (big economic crisis year for Germans in general).
For remaining months of 2021? I'd expect it to be closer to 5-percent by end of the year.
Another story that popped up....used car prices are going up by a minimum of 10-percent in Germany....mostly over reduced production of new cars (chip problems still). If you had a two-year old high-end VW or Audi....it's probably around 20-percent above what the used-car price ought to be. No way to determine if this is a short-term or long-term deal. But even if you sold your nice slightly used car....then what? It might take VW or BMW six to twelve months to deliver anything new.
