Germany is doing just fine, it passed Japan as the bigger economy. Japan is one declining, their demographic shrinkage and a stagnant economy for the past 3 decades.

> Germany is doing just fine

Perhaps do a little research than believe whatever you want to believe?

Just searching for "german economy" would yield the world is saying the opposite.

I did do bit of research. Please tell me what am I missing?

Japan

GDP: $4.230 trillion GDP Per Capita: $33,950 Expected 2024 Growth: 1.0%

Germany

GDP: $4.4 trillion GDP Per Capita: $52,800 Expected 2024 Growth: 0.2%

Did you read the article? Or even just the headline?
A rally in the stock market does not necessarily reflect a strong economy. See e.g. Abenomics
DAX made new all-time highs while Germany's economy is not doing great at all.
