On Friday, the DAX was fueled by the agreement on the debt package and once again staged an impressive rally on the trading floor. Investments in defence and infrastructure, but also the economy and climate protection will benefit from the debt package. The CDU/CSU, SPD and Greens were finally able to reach an agreement, and the DAX knew only one direction from then on, although the decision of the Bundestag is still pending and will be debated next Tuesday. A typical situation for investors who buy the rumors and now the question arises as to whether the facts created on Tuesday actually lead to a sale, according to the motto, buy the rumors and sell the facts. It will therefore be exciting for investors at the beginning of the trading week. The shares of Rheinmetall, Airbus and Heidelberg Materials were convincing on Friday. The share values that will benefit from the German government's investment were clearly apparent. Investors in Heidelberg Materials in particular are likely to rub their hands if the projects to maintain and expand the infrastructure get underway and flush a lot of money into the company's coffers.
British stock index on the verge of another turnaround
Looking at the UK, the British stock values of the FTSE 100 also rose by 1% on Friday, even though the British gross domestic product was weaker than experts had assumed. At this point, investors are hopeful that economic stimulus measures could also be expected in the long term to promote economic growth. The growth was driven by stocks from the defense sector as well as from shares from the mining sector. This is based on the promises of politicians that defense will be further strengthened because of the Ukraine war and the tense relationship with Russia, and that Great Britain is in good spirits not to fall victim to the tariff sword of the United States. The chart picture of the FTSE 100 looks a little friendlier again and it could well be the case that the correction can be averted again and the index picks up speed again.
