Video: constant topic of inflation: Investors must continue to worry about their money

STORY: A look at trading here on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange on Monday initially indicated a slightly optimistic mood. The DAX initially rose by 0.3 percent. But that cannot hide the fact that investors continue to fear for their money – also in the form of interest. Because currency devaluation is still an issue. Robert Halver, Head of Capital Market Analysis at Baader-Bank: “The big question here is: What’s up with inflation? It’s going down a bit, but not so far that you can be satisfied, so the fear of interest rate increases is still there before very big. And we will get numbers from America this week, new inflation data and of course we look at it very closely.” The technology company Linde had already announced last year that it would withdraw from the leading German index. In two weeks, on February 27th, it should be ready. What does that entail? “If Linde then – unfortunately one has to say it – prefers to be listed in America and not in Germany, then of course a new share will come in, that will probably be Commerzbank, you have to see that Rheinmetall would also be a candidate “But the main thing is that we have an attractive Dax again. It’s also ok if a second bank is there again. And with Rheinmetall, of course, we also have a strong cyclical player, and that’s part of the truth: A turning point in time, a special asset for the Bundeswehr will of course benefit Rheinmetall. That is part of stock market truth.” Linde leaves, a place becomes free. According to the stock exchange rules, the most valuable company on the current ranking list, which is not yet listed in the Dax and fulfills all the necessary conditions, is occupied. Commerzbank had recently positioned itself for this and is likely to follow Linde.
