German business sentiment held at the highest level in more than two years in November, signaling that the recovery in Europe’s largest economy remains on track.

The Munich-based Ifo institute’s business climate index stayed at 110.4, unchanged from a revised reading for October. That’s the strongest since April 2014 and compares with a median estimate in a Bloomberg survey of economists of 110.5.
