DAX can end the trading day on a positive note
After the trading week started again with a negative day on Monday, the German benchmark index was able to differentiate itself a little from the American stock markets yesterday and closed the trading day in positive territory. The DAX closed Tuesday with a gain of 0.69 percent and stands at 20,271 points. But the US markets also found more stability yesterday, Tuesday, supported by the positive inflation figures from the USA. The rate of price increase was reported weaker than the market had assumed. This, in turn, caused the markets to breathe a sigh of relief in the short term and could help the stock markets stabilize in the next few trading days.
The Trump factor in the markets creates volatility
Another factor that is currently still acting as a brake is the imminent inauguration of Donald Trump. The markets seem to be uncertain whether the new president will start his new legislative period with a bang and, above all, with what power from the ranks of his own party. There are rumors that the party could oppose one or the other minister that Donald Trump has planned.
Deutsche Bank and Siemens Energy at the top
In any case, the DAX was able to push itself into a slightly better position yesterday to be able to reach the new all-time high soon. Among the individual stocks, it was the shares of Deutsche Bank and Siemens Energy that set the tone yesterday. Deutsche Bank rose by 3.4 percent and the DAX high-flyer Siemens Energy rose by 3.3 percent. Sartorius shares, which were convincing on Monday, had to give up more than half of their gains and ended the trading day with a minus of 2.8 percent. This could mean a small setback in Sartorius' bottoming out.
