Stock exchange on August 10: Five points that are important for investors today
In the new week, the reporting season is slowly coming to an end. In addition, important economic data is on the agenda. Is another record high possible for the Dax?
An investor-friendly German stock market remained strong despite geopolitical tensions. On Friday, the Dax index closed up 0.7 percent at 26,355 points following surprising positive US labor market data. The index achieved a 2.7 percent increase overall and set several new record highs. The Dax is expected to defend these gains at the start of the trading week.
The Dax index showed almost no change early Monday morning on over-the-counter platforms. At the beginning of the new trading week, machinery and plant builder Gea opened its books in the morning. The index will open with the Sentix investor confidence index and the real estate price index on the agenda. The first notable event in the morning trading session is the release of Q2 earnings for Gea Group, a Dax-listed machine and plant builder.
Key indicators for investors to watch include the quarterly results of Gea Group, real estate investment company Patrizia, and Canadian gold mining company Barrick Mining.
