Moderate losses continue to weigh on the Dax as it remains under pressure on Wednesday. The leading German index fell by 0.20 percent to 16,079.10 points in the first few minutes of trading. The MDAX, which represents medium-sized companies, also experienced a decline of 0.46 percent to 26,596.11 points. The Eurozone leading index EuroStoxx 50 also saw a decrease of 0.23 percent to 4333.10 points.
These losses come after concerns about the economy and significant price declines in the chemical sector dampened market sentiment on Monday and Tuesday. Despite this, the Dax managed to hold above the 16,000 point mark comfortably, following its record high of 16,427 points on Friday.
According to Landesbank Helaba’s daily outlook, these recent losses are seen as a correction of an overall upward trend. The report suggests that even a potential drop to around 15,700 points would not be considered a significant setback from a technical standpoint.
Investors will be closely monitoring the market in the coming days to assess whether the current downward trend will continue or if the Dax will regain its momentum and resume its upward trajectory.
