Saxony-Anhalt: IHK: Companies expect the economy to deteriorate

Halle (dpa/sa) - Businesses in southern Saxony-Anhalt expect their business situation to deteriorate in the coming months. The recently observed pessimism has solidified, said a spokesman for the Halle-Dessau Chamber of Industry and Commerce (IHK) on Wednesday. According to a survey of the business climate in the second quarter, many companies would see energy and commodity prices as the main risk factor for their economic development. That goes across all sectors, said economic expert Danny Bieräugel.
