Dax aktuell: Dax notiert im Plus – Ölpreise fallen wieder

Während das letzte Dax-Unternehmen am Donnerstag ihre Bücher öffnet, entscheiden neue Konjunkturdaten über die Stimmung der Anleger. Geht die Rekordjagd am deutschen Aktienmarkt weiter?

Dax aktuell: Dax notiert im Plus – Ölpreise fallen wieder

Düsseldorf: The DAX continued to soar to record heights on Wednesday, with investors making gains, but on Thursday, there is the possibility of yet another record high. The DAX rose by 0.5 percent to 26,450 points on Thursday, following its record of 26,573.50 points reached on Wednesday. However, it then fell by 0.2 percent to 26,331 points.

The reporting season is coming to an end with the energy giant RWE presenting its figures, along with Thyssenkrupp and Dutch payment service provider Adyen. Optimistic outlooks on business prospects in the booming Artificial Intelligence (AI) market and a slight decrease in US inflation drove the US stock market up on Wednesday.

Thursday will see US data as the main drivers, particularly US producer prices, which are expected to have risen by 4.9 percent in July compared to the same month last year, according to Reuters economists. June saw a rise of 5.5 percent. The prices collected by producers are considered a precursor to further development of consumer prices.

Also due for release on Thursday are data on US initial unemployment claims and industrial production in the Eurozone.
