After the recovery over the course of the previous day, the German stock market continued to stabilize on Tuesday. Investors, however, remain unsettled. Shortly after the opening, the leading index Dax rose by 0.15 percent to 14,822.52 points. The MDax of medium-sized companies gained 1.08 percent to 24,339.58 points. The Eurozone leading index EuroStoxx 50 rose by 0.2 percent. Data on the mood in the Eurozone economy is likely to be important for price development in the morning.
Otherwise, the focus remains on the situation in the Middle East. An escalation of the war between Israel and the Islamist Hamas is still not ruled out. Investors are also keeping a close eye on returns on the US bond market. On Monday, the yield on trend-setting ten-year US government securities temporarily rose to more than five percent, which had a significant impact on the stock markets. Only an easing in returns in the afternoon gave the Dax, which had meanwhile fallen to 14,630 points and thus to its lowest level since March, a tailwind again.
