Current Dax: Midterms move Dax into positive territory – Heidelberg share jumps up
The clear election victory of the Democrats in the US corresponds to the expectations of investors. In addition, figures and inflation data are causing movement.
The Democrats have won the US midterm elections, a widely expected outcome that has been met with a positive reaction in the markets. The Dax index rose by nearly 1% to 26,104 points, surpassing the 26,000-point mark. US President Donald Trump congratulated the Democrats on their victory and signaled a willingness to work with them, saying he would not use his veto power on legislation as frequently.
The Democratic majority in both houses of Congress will limit Trump's power for the remainder of his term. The impact of the elections on the situation with Iran is unclear.
