Vonovia shares are in decline: ex-dividend day brings price losses!

Today, May 29, 2025, Vonovia shares are under great pressure. On its ex-dividend day, the stock experienced a decline of 4.6 percent, which corresponds to a loss of 1.36 euros to a price of 28.18 euros. As a result, the stock is listed at the bottom of the DAX, which is a worrying development. The distributed dividend of 1.22 euros per share mathematically pushes the price down. Without this dividend discount, the share would be at 29.40 euros, which represents a significant difference to the current price. Yesterday the closing price was 29.54 euros and, with a loss of 0.14 euros or around 0.47 percent, already indicated decreasing strength, and additional price weaknesses beyond the dividend discount were noted.

The general market mood was initially friendly on Monday, but Vonovia shares still fell by around two percent and fell below the important mark of 25.00 euros. A closing price below this value could be interpreted as another sell signal. The stock has experienced a sustained period of weakness since the beginning of the month. While the price was over 30 euros at the end of February, it fell to 26.00 euros in the first week of March. An attempt to stabilize above this level failed, which put additional pressure on the stock.

Slump due to higher financing costs

The company is currently facing a number of challenges. In particular, the new federal government's debt plans are putting a strain on the real estate company. Higher bond yields and interest rates lead to higher financing costs, which could pose a serious threat to housing companies like Vonovia. If interest rates continue to rise above current expectations, there is a risk of higher indirect costs, which could weigh on business results.

Despite these setbacks, Vonovia is confident about the demand for living space and considers itself to be well positioned for the future. The dividend was increased from 0.90 to 1.22 euros per share, but this has not yet had a positive impact on the share price. However, investors remain skeptical and are watching the situation in a wait-and-see manner. There is a risk of further difficulties for the real estate group in the short term.

Overall, the current uncertainty is reflected in the market and among investors, while Vonovia remains in a critical phase.
