Dax aktuell: Dax schließt nach neuem Rekord noch im Minus – Fresenius steigt um fünf Prozent

Düsseldorf – The optimism on the German stock market continues as the Dax index reached a new record high for the third consecutive day on Wednesday, closing at 26,403.81 points. Despite this strong performance, the Dax finished the trading day at 26,126 points, showing no change. Since July 20, the Dax has only had one losing trading day, a 1500-point increase (more than 6%) in this period.

Analysts suggest that investors are capitalizing on the market's rally for now. Robomarkets' Martin Utschneider notes that the market is pricing in a positive causal chain, while QC Markets' Thomas Altmann believes the record-breaking pursuit will continue for now. The eagerly awaited opening of the Hormuz Strait could lead to further declines in oil and gas prices, which would have far-reaching effects, such as lower energy costs to ease inflation expectations and put downward pressure on long-term interest rates.
