BERLIN (AP) — Industrial production in Germany rose 0.3 percent in December, not enough to significantly help Europe’s largest economy as it ended the year on a soft note.

The Economy Ministry also said Thursday that, according to revised figures, production in November slipped by 0.2 percent — compared with the 0.2 percent rise initially reported. That followed a 2 percent drop in October.
