The European Commission is taking bold steps to revitalize the
single market. Industry Commissioner Thierry Breton aims to cut red
tape and even intervene in national legislation to push economic
growth. German manufacturers, especially in the engineering sector,
welcome this initiative.

Meanwhile, the DAX continues to outperform global indices, driven
by resilient investor sentiment and cautious optimism around
U.S.-China trade talks. However, companies like Infineon remain
sensitive to U.S. tariffs and currency fluctuations.

In banking, Commerzbank surprised markets with its highest
quarterly profit since 2011, reinforcing confidence in Germany’s
financial sector.

On the start-up front, German venture capital remains upbeat.
Despite global uncertainty, investors are focusing heavily on
artificial intelligence and defense tech.

And in currency markets, the euro is gaining strength against the
U.S. dollar, largely due to declining trust in American fiscal
policy. But experts caution—it’s still far from challenging the
dollar’s role as the dominant global reserve currency.
