  "account": "The German stock market, as represented by the Dax, has surged to near-record highs, driven by several factors including hopes of diplomatic progress in the Iran war, declining energy prices, and lower bond yields. The Dax is up 0.6% to 26,600 points, close to its current record high of 26,618.74 points. Energy prices, including oil and gas, have dropped significantly, with the price of Brent crude down 20% this week to around $95 per barrel. The outcome of the US midterm elections, in which Democrats gained a majority in the Senate and House of Representatives, has also contributed to market gains.",
  "summary": "Over the past two trading weeks, the Dax has risen by more than five percent or 1400 points. The current record high is within close reach.",
