Explanation:
MoM, QoQ and YoY comparisons:

MoM (Month-over-Month) are changes in levels expressed with respect to the previous month. MoM measures tend to be more volatile as they are more affected by one-time events (e.g. stock market crash, natural disasters, months with many working days, months with many people on vacation, etc.).

==> we compare the average of Month X with Month Y to calculate the MoM change (e.g., average of June with July and report in August, like the Consumer Price Index or CPI)

QoQ (Quarter-over-Quarter) figures calculate change compared to the previous financial quarter, such as comparing Q2 with Q1 of this year. Although many figures are released monthly, many important indicators are released on a quarterly basis, such as GDP (gross domestic product). QoQ will tend to be more volatile than Year-over-Year figures but less volatile than MoM numbers.

==> we compare the average of Financial Quarter X with Financial Quarter Y to calculate the QoQ change (e.g., average of Quarter 1 2009 with the average of Quarter 2 2009) - see http://howto.commetrics.com/database/numbers-explained/our-s...

Euro performance on a month-over-month basis = Euro-Performance im Monatsvergleich

Grundsätzlich zeigt der Dreimonatsvergleich ein besseres Bild: ... Das verstärkt die Auswirkungen der konjunkturellen Schwäche in den Industrieländern. Im weniger schwankungsabhängigen Dreimonatsvergleich von Dezember bis Februar ist der Ordereingang nur um ein Prozent zurückgegangen. Ob der Februar ein Ausnahmemonat war oder sich diese Flaute auch im März und damit bald im Dreimonatsvergleich niederschlagen wird http://www.finanzen.net/video/VDMA__Grundsaetzlich_zeigt_der...
