Germany's industrial woes have increasingly become a hot topic of discussion. The latest Engineer Monitor report from professional association Verein Deutscher Ingenieure and the German Economic Institute offers a new look at the issue.
The report showed that there were 58,392 unemployed individuals in the engineering and information technology (IT) professions in the fourth quarter of 2025, the highest level since the survey began in 2011. 
Compared with the previous year, the number of unemployed increased by 16.7 percent, according to German media reports on Sunday.
These figures lay bare the challenges confronting the country's manufacturing sector. The reasons for the industrial woes are multiple. The soaring energy costs caused by geopolitical conflicts, the decline in exports caused by rising protectionism and low external demand, and the structural pain caused by industrial chain restructuring are all squeezing the space of German manufacturing.
Manufacturing is the backbone of Germany's economy, and engineers and IT specialists constitute the core force that sustains this pillar. For decades, the country's reputation for "Made in Germany" excellence was built on the expertise of these skilled professionals. Regardless of the macroeconomic ups and downs, preserving the stability and continuity of its industrial talent pool represents a strategic bottom line for Germany. 
Should large numbers of highly skilled technical professionals leave the industry or sit idle, industrial research and development (R&D) and production cycles will be disrupted. Over the longer term, such a waste of human capital will erode Germany's industrial innovation capacity and, ultimately, undermine the foundations of its global competitiveness.
In this context, the urgent task for Germany is to create sufficient quality positions for its technical talent. Should it fail to do so in the short term, then Germany needs to embrace a more open‑minded development approach. Shoring up its manufacturing base cannot be achieved solely through protecting domestic companies; it also requires a significant expansion of effective investment to create enough high‑quality jobs that can attract and retain skilled talent.
This is exactly where China‑Germany cooperation could deliver tangible results. According to the FDI Report 2025 published by Germany Trade & Invest (GTAI), the total number of foreign investment projects in Germany fell 9.3 percent overall to 1,564 in 2025. Nonetheless, Chinese companies became the largest source of foreign investment projects in Germany in 2025, overtaking the US for the first time since 2017. 
Chinese companies launched 228 investment projects in Germany in 2025, up 14.6 percent year-on-year. More than one in five Chinese investment projects involved production and R&D activities, above the overall average for foreign investment projects in Germany. This is a sign that Chinese firms are deepening their integration into the local industrial base, according to GTAI.
Observers noted the trend, pointing out that China is becoming an important force in driving German re‑industrialization. In industries where Germany urgently needs to rebuild its competitive edge, such as electric vehicles, batteries, energy technology, digital manufacturing, and automation, China is emerging as an increasingly significant complementary partner. In these critical areas that will determine industrial competitiveness in the coming decades, the relationship between China and Germany is not merely one of rivalry; there are clear and substantial complementarities. Germany still boasts world‑leading engineering expertise, precision manufacturing capabilities, and a strategic location at the heart of the European market. 
China has complete and highly integrated supply chains for raw materials and intermediate goods and large capacity for increasing production. When Chinese automakers set up R&D centers in Germany, or when Chinese tech firms collaborate with German factories to build smart production lines, the beneficiaries are not only the Chinese companies but also the German engineers who would otherwise face redundancy.
Cross‑border investment cannot flourish without a sound policy environment. Chinese companies are apparently willing to develop in Germany, but it can only happen on the premise that the German side provides a fair, reasonable and predictable business environment, reduces non-market interference in commercial activities, and allows capital to operate in accordance with market rules.
If the two countries are able to reach a deeper level of cooperation in investment, many of Germany's trade‑related concerns may well find more pragmatic solutions. The deep integration of industrial value chains would facilitate two‑way trade, creating renewed momentum for German exports of machinery, vehicles, chemicals, and other competitive products to China.
。英国统计局周三数据显示，英国8月CPI同比9.9%，预期10%，前值10.1%，整体通胀率增速从7月的两位数增长小幅回落。英国8月CPI环比0.5%，预期0.6%，前值0.6%。剔除波动较大的食品和燃料价格，英国8月核心CPI同比6.3%，预期6.2%，前值6.2%。英国统计局表示，截至2022年8月的12个月内，CPI所有商品指数上涨12.9%，低于7月的13.5%。在截至2022年8月的12个月中，CPI所有服务业指数上涨5.9%，高于7月的5.7%。核心CPI（不包括能源、食品、酒和烟草）同比上涨6.3%，高于7月的6.2%。汽车燃料价格的下降对8月的通胀变化做出了最大的下行贡献，而最大的上行贡献来自于住房和家庭服务（主要是电力、天然气和其他燃料）、交通以及食品和非酒精饮料。

C | 数据显示，英国8月车用燃料和润滑油价格下跌6.8%，为2020年4月以来最大月度跌幅。数据发布后，英镑兑美元小幅震荡，现报1.1498。

D | 英国仍在与主要发达经济体中最高的通胀率作斗争。8月通胀数据可能引发市场对于通胀已见顶的讨论，从而减轻英国央行持续行动的压力。但有分析认为，8月核心通胀率略微上升将使英国央行保持在继续紧缩的道路上。受英女王去世影响，英国央行推迟了原定于本周发布的利率决定。目前市场预计英国央行将在下周进一步加息。利率期货显示，市场预计英国央行将在9月22日加息75个基点至2.5%的可能性为79%。如果最终实现，这将是英国央行自1989年以来的最大升息。
