The World Forgot About Germany, But Not Just Yet
While the US basks in the glow of its post-election glow, an unlikely contender for investor attention is emerging. Forget Silicon Valley and Wall Street – the focus is shifting, albeit quietly, to Germany, where a surge is rippling through its stock market.
Germany’s Dax 40 index has silenced the doubters, perforiming remarkably well since the US election. This rocket to new heights, crossing the 20,000 mark for the first time ever, seems counterintuitive.
