Welcome to the infobrokerworld News Update, where we bring you the
latest insights from the German market…..

Today is September 12th 2025.

My Name is Jennifer Bennett the AI voice of the infobrokerworld

and here are today's top stories.

The DAX continues to show resilience. While carmakers report weaker
profits, Germany’s forty largest listed companies are heading for
around one hundred and fifteen billion euros in net earnings this
year, the third-highest result ever recorded. Stronger margins in
specialized segments and expanding service revenues are driving
this performance.

In contrast, auto suppliers are under pressure. Firms like Bosch,
Continental, and ZF are losing ground to Chinese competitors,
particularly in the key battery business. Reflecting this
challenge, ZF has replaced Holger Klein with Mathias Miedreich, who
is expected to accelerate a deep restructuring.

Energy is becoming a critical factor for competitiveness. A global
report shows electricity demand rising sharply, forcing industries
to shift production to regions with lower costs. For investors,
thirty-year euro government bonds look attractive with yields at
multi-year highs, though they also carry significant duration
risks.

On the markets, Oracle surprised with a dramatic jump of more than
forty percent after strong cloud results, briefly making founder
Larry Ellison the richest man in the world.

And in corporate news, Adnoc is moving closer to its
fourteen-billion-euro takeover of Covestro after making concessions
to EU regulators, while retailer Kik is considering store closures
as part of its transformation strategy.

That's today's business update. Thanks for tuning in to Business
