E Investors in Uropas continue to respond calmly to the increased political hotspots. Even though they threatened US sanctions for companies with company-related ties to Iran and the prospect of a populist government in Italy, it was not at the end of the week, there were no big losses.

Daxen was about 1

3,000 points and was about 0.2 percent on Friday afternoon weaker at 13,001 meters. Euro Stoxx 50 gave 0.3 percent to 3560 jobs. On Wall Street, there was a clearer stock market opening. On the one hand, investors continue to focus on sound financial and balance sheets, experts say. In addition, investors expected a bargaining settlement in the dispute about the US futures contract with Iran. "There is a transitional period until the sanctions enter into force," says investment strategist Benjamin Schroeder from ING Bank. Until then, an agreement can be reached. If Dax exceeds 13,000 points, the road is ready for a new record height, analyst Jochen Stanzl said from online broker CMC Markets. The previous entry from January is 13 596.89 meters.
