Investing.com -- Investors are more pessimistic about the German economy than they have been since the 2008 financial crisis, according to a monthly survey from the ZEW Institute on Tuesday.
The think tank's gauge of investor expectations dropped to -61.9 in September, down from -55.3 in the previous month and below forecasts for -60.0. A level under zero indicates pessimism, while a reading above zero suggests optimism.
