2:03 pm 10 December 2024

  • European indices halt bullish trend
  • TeamViewer shares with nearly 13% plunge
  • Allianz raises forecasts for the next three years
     

Tuesday's session on the European stock market brings declines in most stock indices. Germany's DAX is currently losing 0.05%, France's CAC40 is losing 0.65% at the same time, and the UK's FTSE100 is adding 0.61%. Investors' attention is focused on corporate news today, in the absence of major macro data releases. 

Sentiment in the European stock market deteriorated slightly from yesterday's session. A clear rebound is still observed primarily in the stocks of companies in the automotive sector. Fashion and metals, however, are subject to downward pressure today. Source: xStation5

DE40 (D1 interval)

The DAX has broken out to new historic highs. From a technical point of view, the DE40 seems to be maintaining its overall uptrend, as long as the 100-day curve (purple curve) and the 50-day curve (blue curve) are not broken on high volume, so it is worth looking now to see if the index manages to stay permanently above these zones (technically important support points). If such a scenario were to take place, it could mean an increase in the chances of a general continuation of the upward trend. However, it is worth noting the indications of the RSI indicator, which has gone above the 70 barrier (a textbook overbought level).
