  • Economic growth on hold

    The Swedish economy is still in recession. This is shown by Statistics Sweden’s business cycle clock. Household consumption lacks growth and the export of goods has started to decline.

  • Weak investments in dwellings dampened economic growth

    The Swedish economy shrank marginally in both the fourth quarter and in the year of 2023.

  • Weak domestic demand

    The Swedish business cycle continues to be weak. The economy stands still with almost zero growth. The main reason is low domestic demand.
