DAX in bullish mood after yesterday's FOMC decision

Investors' attention turns to the ECB decision today

Deutsche Bank slightly disappoints with its Q4 2022 results
Thursday's trading session in markets from the Old Continent brings a strengthening of sentiment among investors, who continue to buy in Europe after yesterday's bullish reaction to the FOMC decision. We have a very interesting day ahead of us as far as the macro calendar is concerned, and it is not surprising that most of the market movements will precisely depend on the reaction to specific data. Behind us is the BoE decision, which turned out to be in line with expectations. At 1:15 pm GMT we will learn the ECB's interest rate decision. The consensus for the ECB decision is 50 bps. After the close of the Wall Street session, we will learn Q4 2022 earnings reports from, among others: Apple, Amazon and Alphabet.

News from companies and bank recommendations:
-
Investor attention in Germany is focused on Deutsche Bank's (DBK.DE) quarterly results, which somewhat disappointed the market. The weaker results are mainly due to weaker results from the investment banking sector, higher costs and a lack of details on the share buyback program. The bank's CEO also added that the bank does not rule out the possibility of cutting staff.
