Stock market today: DAX slightly lower, Bayer rises significantly
Published
On 3 November, the German stock index DAX showed a slightly weak trend in the afternoon. At 13:59, the index stood at 25,862.75 points and had lost 0.05 percent. The index comprises the 40 largest listed companies in Germany and is regarded as an important benchmark for the development of the stock market in the German-speaking region.
The pharmaceutical company Bayer was the strongest gainer on that day, with its share price rising 5.85 percent. The medical technology group Fresenius Medical Care was also among the winners, with a gain of 2.35 percent. The semiconductor manufacturer Infineon was likewise named among the most important stocks, although the details provided are incomplete.
The TecDAX, which measures the performance of technology-oriented companies in the stock market segment, performed significantly weaker in comparison. At the same time, it lost 0.96 percent. For investors in Austria, these price movements are particularly relevant because many Austrian companies and funds are closely linked to the German economy.
The afternoon price developments show that the markets have behaved inconsistently. While some individual companies gained strongly, other stocks declined. Further information on the close of trading and the final balance of the day was not yet available at the time of the report.
