MDax losses and SDax profits: Current stock market developments in focus

According to a report by www.verlagshaus-jaumann.de, the food delivery service Delivery Hero was the weakest stock in the MDax with a loss of seven percent. In contrast, the wind and solar park operator Energiekontor, the strongest stock in the SDax small-cap index, gained 7.4 percent after the company raised its profit outlook. The electronics retailer Ceconomy also expects operational improvements in the new financial year, but the shares still lost 9.2 percent in the SDax.

The European leading indices EuroStoxx and CAC 40 in Paris lost ground, while the leading index Dow Jones Industrial in New York continued its record run at a moderate pace. The Nasdaq stock market posted moderate gains. The euro traded at $1.0920 after the European close, while the bond market's current yield fell.

In view of these developments, there could be increased volatility in the relevant stock markets. Given the uncertain consumption environment and vague outlook, investors could reduce their holdings in companies such as Delivery Hero and Ceconomy, while investing more in companies such as Energiekontor that have positive development prospects. The euro exchange rate and the current yield on the bond market could also be influenced by uncertainties in the market. It is important to follow developments closely in order to be able to react accordingly to changes.
