Today’s financial headlines spotlight Deutsche Bank, which posted
its highest profit since 2007, pushing shares up over eight
percent. Meanwhile, JD.com, China’s e-commerce heavyweight, is in
advanced talks to acquire Ceconomy, the German firm behind Media
Markt and Saturn.

The European Central Bank has hit pause on interest rate cuts,
though internal divisions suggest uncertainty ahead. A strong euro
and a weakening dollar are putting pressure on German exporters,
especially during a sluggish global trade environment.

In Munich, the bold "Woodstocx" real estate project signals a green
shift in urban development—driven by the vision of a late
billionaire. Simultaneously, Germany’s housing ministry proposes
building homes above supermarkets to ease the space crunch in city
centers.

Despite international tensions, business sentiment across the
eurozone is improving. Small-cap companies are outperforming and
catching the eye of investors looking for resilient growth amid
uncertainty.
