  "account": "The Dax remains nearly unchanged at 25,569 points on Wednesday. Deutsche Bank reported a billion-euro profit in the third quarter, with a pre-tax profit of 2.6 billion euros, up 8% from the previous year, and a net profit of 1.9 billion euros, up 2%. The bank's investment division contributed significantly to the good results, with its shares rising 3.4%. Meanwhile, BASF's quarterly results exceeded expectations, with a 15% increase in operating earnings to 1.64 billion euros and a 14% rise in sales to 16.4 billion euros, prompting the company to raise its annual targets. Mercedes-Benz, however, expects to miss its annual targets due to a decline in its China business.",
  "summary": "Deutsche Bank, Mercedes, BASF – there is no shortage of new figures from Dax companies on Wednesday. In the evening, the US Federal Reserve's interest rate decision is due.",
