Germany: Your (Easter) Egg Paradise!
Hardly anything has scrambled the agenda of the current occupant of the White House more thoroughly than skyrocketing egg prices—well, perhaps tariffs or more recently exploding US bond yields. But egg prices certainly make the top tier of presidential worries, posing a genuine headache for household budgets. Now Easter hops along and the situation gets really worrying.
As illustrated in the chart, egg prices in the US have nearly tripled over the past decade and have more than doubled just within the last year alone.
Contrast that with Germany, where the Easter Bunny seems to have laid a golden economic egg. Here, prices have risen a modest 40% over ten years and only 2.4% in the past year. Adjust for general inflation, and you’re practically enjoying egg-price stability—an Easter miracle in economic terms!
So, if eggs feature heavily on your breakfast, brunch or dinner menu and you’re thinking of relocating:
Germany is clearly your first choice.
