News:

  • Increasing competition in China's EV sector is putting pressure on Mercedes-Benz (MBG.DE) shares, which are losing nearly 6.5% today. Competitive prices from other companies are translating into lower sales.

  • Yesterday's geopolitical turmoil in Poland is driving the stock prices of companies in the defense sector. Rheinmetall (RHM.DE) shares gained as much as 5.5% today, but the latest information in the case indicates that the explosion was triggered by Ukrainian anti-aircraft missiles.
