According to CoinMeta, and as reported by InvestingLive, Italy's GDP grew by 0.2% in the second quarter of 2026, which is higher than the expected 0.1%. The change in this quarter was mainly due to an increase in added value in the service sector, while agriculture, forestry, fisheries, and industry saw declines. From the demand side, the dynamics in the second quarter resulted in a negative contribution from net exports and a positive contribution from domestic components (including changes in inventories).
