Dax currently: Dax ends the last trading day of a loss week in the plus - and closes again above 26,000 points

The Dax index has stabilised after a four-day loss streak, closing 0.6% higher at 26,137 points on Friday. This marks a recovery above the 26,000-point threshold after struggling earlier in the day. Despite this gain, the index still recorded a 1.2% loss for the week, with all but Friday's trading sessions ending in losses. The 21-day line, currently at 25,928 points, remains intact, which from a technical standpoint, keeps the short-term trend intact.

Helaba expert Markus Reinwand notes that investors are still repositioning their portfolios, but the bank expects further market momentum, forecasting the Dax to reach 27,000 points by year-end.
