The DAX fell back a little further from its recruited record on Friday. US President Donald Trump (79) threatened the European Union with flat-rate penalty tariffs of 15 or 20 percent. “The optimism from the first half of the week with a new Dax record gives way to fear of an evil customs surprise before the weekend,” commented Markt analyst Jochen Stanzl from the Broker CMC Markets. The risk of risk of investors should therefore remain limited.
In the early trade, the German leading index fell 0.6 percent to 24,302 points. On Thursday, the DAX had reached another high with 24,639 points. After around 24 percent plus in the current year, however, the connection purchases were missing. The DAX is still more than 2 percent up on a weekly perspective. The MDAX of medium -sized stock market companies gave up 0.5 percent to 31,483 points on Friday. For the Eurozone-Leiten-Leindex EuroStoxx 50, it was 0.7 percent down.
Most recently, the customs dispute had largely left the investors. “However, the tariffs continue to have the potential to massively slow down world trade and corporate profits,” warned portfolio manager Thomas Altmann from the VAT manager QC Partners. Investors should keep an eye on this despite the getting used to. In addition to the threat towards the EU Trump also imposed new tariffs against Canada in the amount of 35 percent.
