      Guess all these investors missed the memo that Germany’s economy is done for?

      How is that even possible? USA doesnt just have a stronger economy per capita, its also nearly 5 times as big. Can someone explain to me how germany can pull more investments?

      Video has literally no extra info besides the headline, so don’t waste your time watching.

      Also, you will save yourself from a Hungarian propaganda advertisement. Jesus wept

      >Germany replaced the United States to become the top place to invest in 2023 with foreign direct investment amounting to €410 billion, latest Eurostat figures show.

      I am curious about the methodology so I decided to look into the original [report](https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/statistics-explained/index.php?title=Foreign_direct_investment_positions_by_ultimate_counterpart&oldid=589371). The way Eurostat explains it is very confusing.

      >In 2023, for the 11 EU Member States: Austria, Czechia, Denmark, Estonia, Spain, Finland, France, Greece, Italy, Portugal and Romania, which reported inward UIE FDI positions to Eurostat, the top investors were concentrated among a relatively small number of developed countries. As shown in Figure 1, the top UIE was Germany (12.6% of the total value of UIE FDI positions of the 11 reporting countries), followed by the United States (12.5%), France (10.9%), the United Kingdom (8.9%) and Switzerland (6.5%).

      Eurostat considers the 11 reporting EU member and then rank each member in that group by Ultimate Investing Economy (UIE). Germany is the top aof this group. However, Eurostat then includes the US and placed it second. How would it know the FDI number for the US? If Germany’s number is a function of its position within the 11 reporting member, how does the US’s number make sense?

      The [OECD reports different numbers](https://mneguidelines.oecd.org/statistics.htm), placing the US at the top and Germany at 5th place for 2023. The UN also reports the same [number](https://digitallibrary.un.org/record/4052094?ln=en), which has Germany at 8th for 2023. The IMF also reports the [same](https://www.imf.org/external/pubs/ft/bop/2023/pdf/42/23-21.pdf), where Germany is 4th.

      For what I’ve seen the largest FDI is the US, Singapore and Brazil
