The DAX Index fell by 1.37% to €23,755, influenced by a stalled US-Iran ceasefire and weak sales from Mercedes-Benz, which reported a 6% drop in Q1 sales, particularly in China. The index's decline reflects broader concerns over energy prices and geopolitical tensions, with analysts predicting continued volatility. Mercedes-Benz's stock dropped by 2.2%, alongside declines in other automakers. The DAX Index remains below key moving averages, indicating potential further declines, with a target of €23,000 before a possible rebound to €25,000 if stability is achieved.

According to preliminary estimates from the Federal Statistical Office of Germany, the annual inflation rate in Germany rebounded to 2.7% in March 2026, up from 1.9% in February.

Inflation in the service sector remained at 3.2%, core inflation held steady at 2.5%, while food inflation decreased from 1.1% to 0.9%. Meanwhile, the annual inflation rate of the Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP) in the European Union rose to 2.8%, all above the European Central Bank's target of 2%

The DAX Index fell over 2% to €23,000, its lowest this year, due to surging energy prices, particularly a 22% rise in European gas prices. This has raised concerns about inflation and competitiveness for energy-intensive industries, notably automotive. Companies like Volkswagen are cutting jobs amid these challenges. The European Central Bank is expected to raise interest rates twice this year to combat inflation, while bond yields have risen. Most DAX constituents are down, with Vonovia dropping 8.95%. A technical analysis indicates potential further declines if key support levels are breached.
