Dax aktuell: Dax notiert deutlich schwächer – Tech-Aktie legt zu

On the final trading day of the week, Germany's key index, the DAX, struggled to replicate the gains from the previous day. At 2:30 PM on Friday, the DAX traded at 25,310 points, marking a decline of approximately 1.6% compared to the prior day. On Thursday, the index managed to gain 0.7% and reach 25,717 points. Oil market prices showed some signs of easing after the previous day's declines.

Brent crude oil, delivered in November, fell to around $104 per barrel, or 159 liters, a 0.1% decrease from the previous day. Reports of alternative supply routes for Saudi Arabian oil exports helped ease concerns over supply bottlenecks caused by the Iran war. The critical Red Sea pipeline, an alternate route to the Hormuz Strait, had been damaged by drone attacks earlier.

According to the financial news agency Bloomberg, the country aims to restore half of the capacity within days. Producer prices for industrial goods rose on Friday, up 4.6% compared to the same month last year, a 1.1% increase from July.
