BERLIN, June 7 (Reuters) - German industrial output rose less than expected in April, darkening the outlook for the euro zone's largest economy following weak new orders data earlier this week. The statistics office revised up the industrial production figure for March to a 2.1% decrease from a provisional figure of a 3.4% fall. Even with this revision, German industrial production is 1.6% below its level a year earlier. Data on Tuesday showed industrial orders fell by 0.4% in the month of April.

Feb 2 (Reuters) - German chip equipment supplier Siltronic (WAFGn.DE) on Thursday said demand for its wafers was still strong even as it warned a slowdown in end-markets could weigh on 2023 results. The Munich-based supplier of silicon wafers for the semiconductor industry said demand for its products had remained high so far this year, but added some of its customers expected weaker orders in the first half of 2023.
