Stock markets: Caution remains the order of the day
Current stock market news: Nel ASA, BYD, Deutsche Telekom and Bayer in focus - back in the valley of tears, some confidence, dividends and weak condition. Be careful!
Stock markets: Caution remains the order of the day
The stock markets are showing some unevenness this week. While interest rate concerns are circulating in the USA, the publication of strong economic data is providing some optimism. The European Central Bank has hinted at a potential interest rate cut in June, but a final decision is still pending. Overall, prices remained relatively stable on Thursday.
Nel ASA has experienced some stabilization, although at low levels. The abrupt rise in the share price to over 0.50 euros a few days ago was unexpected and is partly attributed to speculation about the withdrawal of short sellers. Nevertheless, there were no new fundamental developments. A negative analyst assessment caused the recovery to stagnate again. The share closed at 0.46 euros and has not yet shown any sustained recovery.
BYD also struggled with adversity, but was able to score points with the introduction of the next generation of its Blade batteries. This new battery technology promises greater range at lower costs and has been met with some confidence from investors. BYD shares gained over one percent on Thursday.
Deutsche Telekom recently suffered a setback when the Federal Network Agency proposed lower fees for the use of fiber optic conduits. Nevertheless, the general meeting caused a share price decline of almost three percent. However, shareholders can look forward to an increased dividend, which this year amounts to 0.77 euros per share. The actual payout is expected to take place next week.
In contrast, Bayer was unable to record any positive development and lost around two percent. Legal disputes over glyphosate and high debt continue to weigh on the company. Although Bayer has sent some positive signals recently, they are not enough to regain investor confidence. The stock remains unattractive for investors and there is no turnaround in sight.
