Saw all those headlines about Germany passing Japan as the 3rd largest economy in 2023, so I threw the World Bank data into a chart to see what was actually going on.

Turns out it’s basically just a currency story.

In current USD, Germany did cross Japan ($5.05T vs $4.44T). But over that same period, the Yen took a massive hit, dropping from around 80 per dollar down to over 150. When you adjust for exchange rate swings using constant 2015 USD, Japan's actual output was still bigger in 2023.

Just goes to show how much headline GDP rank depends on FX markets rather than actual economic output.

Swipe, and you will see more GDP, GDP per capita, and GDP Constant US$.
