lowered their forecasts for 2024: if just half a year ago, the German economy was expected to grow 1.3%, now the forecast has been cut to just 0.1%.

Why is growth used as a metric? What does it implicate?

Edit: does it mean growth of sales volume or production volume? If one takes inflation into account, a constant sales volume could mean a shrinking production volume?

Good. We need a steady reduction of the economic volume.
