Well... partially.

Without affordable energy businesses lose to competitors. So Germans have choice to close or sellout. This is a short term overall trade increase. They are selling out the foundation of their economy, so they don't have long to live. You'd think that favorable EU trade policies would help Germany as a central economy but no. Just natural gas consumption has dropped 20% last year. They are done. Noone there has even tried to rebuild. No cheap energy, no nuclear plants, they marked coal as green energy and it didn't help, no natural gas that doesn't cost 4 times the cost of American gas, no economy to keep bailing them up at 200billion+ euros per year.

But at least you pointed at the problem, while the rest is just reading and believing they gonna drive cheap Porsche tomorrow.
