Dax aktuell: Dax schließt im Minus – Chip-Aktie setzt Negativtrend fort
Hohe Ölpreise, steigende Anleiherenditen und geopolitische Unsicherheit haben die Märkte am Donnerstag gebremst. Ein starker Ifo-Geschäftsklimaindex konnte die Anleger nicht überzeugen.
In Düsseldorf, as Chinese President Xi Jinping met with US President Donald Trump, investors refrained from trading on Thursday. The DAX closed down 0.6 percent at 25,267 points. From the opening bell, the German benchmark index slipped from 25,164 points, rebounded throughout the day, but dropped again in the late afternoon. With Xi's first visit to the US in nearly three years focusing on trade and technology tensions, a state banquet is scheduled for the evening, where leaders of American companies such as Apple, Nvidia, OpenAI, and JP Morgan are expected to attend.
During the afternoon, Trump claimed that Xi and he had built "a really great friendship" since his 2016 election, based on mutual respect and the best interests of their peoples. Xi stated that China and the US share responsibility for ensuring that artificial intelligence remains under human control. In response, Trump announced progress on this matter, saying, "The decisions we make today in these areas could promote peace and prosperity for decades."
