Stock exchange: Dax at a record high - four developments explain the year-end rally

The German stock market index Dax has risen above 27,000 points for the first time, reaching a high of 27,002 points, a gain of over 1%. This marks the second record high in six trading days, with the previous high being 26,693 points last Thursday.

The Dax has gained 7% since early October, and analysts expect the upward trend to continue.
