DAX is one of the most popular indexes in the world. It is listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. Virtually every day there is very high volatility which gives many trading opportunities.
Session Summary 20.07.2017
There was quite a bit of volatility yesterday in the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. Of course, the European Central Bank, which yesterday announced the results of its two-day meeting, was the culprit. Both the interest rates as well as the scale of the QE program have not been changed. In addition, tapering of the QE program will be discussed more broadly in September. All the time, the Governing Council of the ECB is poised to increase its QE scale. However, the fact that in September it may change to strengthen the euro against the dollar, the EUR/USD pair is at its highest for almost two years and a large variation on the DAX index. Investors in the stock markets count on further loosening by the bank. But for now, they can breathe until September.
