DE30: Stock markets in Europe are waiting for the results of the Midterms!

Tuesday's session on stock markets brings indecision among investors. The German DAX (DE30) index is struggling today against its 200-day exponential moving average. The economic calendar for today is essentially empty, however, investors' attention is focused on the US midterms elections.

  • Fraport (FRA.DE) shares are doing much better, gaining more than 2%. Booming demand for air travel has prompted the Frankfurt airport operator to raise the top end of its earnings forecasts.
