Eurozone Q3 GDP Grows 0.4% Amid Resilience in AI and Defense Investment
The Eurozone economy expanded by 0.4% in the third quarter of 2026, representing a slight deceleration from the 0.6% growth recorded in the second quarter. Despite this cooling trend, the regional economy has demonstrated notable resilience throughout the year. Growth has been primarily bolstered by significant capital inflows into strategic sectors, including artificial intelligence, defense, and infrastructure development. This underlying strength has led economic forecasters to revise their full-year 2026 growth projections upward.
