Spain’s economy expanded 0.3 percent on the quarter in the first three months of 2022, following 2.2 percent in growth in the previous period and below market expectation of a 0.5 percent, preliminary estimates showed. Household consumption fell by 3.7 percent, the steepest drop since Q2 of 2020, dented by surging inflation due to the war in Ukraine and the interrupted supply chains from the Spanish truck driver’s strike.
