The chart above shows the ten-year interest rate in each EU state as of November 2021, the change from the previous month, and the rate one year prior.  Four states have a negative interest rate (up from 3 last month and down from 13 last year).

The one-month and three-month rates trended downwards for the third year in a row while all other rates went up ending their downward trend at two years.  The yield curve widened over the course of the year.  A narrowing from the short-term is a warning sign for an inversion that indicates recession.

The one-month rate fell while all other rates rose in December.  The yield curve widened from the previous month thus ending its narrowing streak at two months.  The one-month bill did not maintain the lowest rate throughout the month and it shared the lowest rate.  There were no major moves upwards on short-term rates thus decreasing the risk of an inversion brought upon by rising short-term rates.  Such an inversion, if it were to happen would be a strong indicator for an upcoming recession.

The chart above shows the annualized nominal gross domestic product (GDP) growth rate when priced in US dollars in each EU and US region over the past five years as of the second quarter of 2021 and the growth over the past ten years.  The Southern EU was the only region that did not experience growth over the past ten years.

The chart above shows the per capita annualized nominal gross domestic product (GDP) in each EU region as of the second quarter of 2021 in euros, the change from five years ago, and the per capita GDP ten years prior.  Every single region's economy grew both over the past five and past ten years.
