Gold prices fall from record highs with rate cuts, payrolls in focus
Investing.com -- Poland’s economy expanded by 3.4% year-on-year in the second quarter of 2025, unchanged from the flash estimate and slightly above the 3.2% growth recorded in the first quarter, the national statistics office reported Monday.
Household consumption provided the main boost, with spending rising 4.4% from a year earlier, accelerating sharply from 2.5% in the previous three months.
By contrast, investment activity slipped unexpectedly, contracting 1.0% in Q2 after surging 6.3% in the first quarter, when growth was largely supported by public-sector outlays, particularly on defense equipment, analysts noted.
The detailed release confirmed the headline GDP figure while shedding more light on the underlying drivers of growth in Central Europe’s largest economy.
