DE30: DAX tests important support at 15,700 points level!

13:55 1 June 2023
  • PMI data for industry comes out mixed

  • Salesforce puts pressure on European software companies

Thursday's session on European markets brings an improvement in investor sentiment. Futures based on the German DAX index (DE30) are up today, but the contracts are still within the zone of important levels defined by the 50-day exponential moving average (blue curve) and the psychological level of 15 700 points. Sentiment is being positively impacted by two factors in particular: 1) the House of Representatives' vote to suspend the debt limit until 1 January 2025. 2) the surprisingly good Caixin PMI data for Chinese industry, which came in above expectations. On the other hand, however, indices in Europe turned out to be relatively mixed.
