and here are today's top stories.

First up, the German stock market has seen a solid rise of nine
percent since January. However, while some stocks have been
soaring, others haven’t been so fortunate.

Shifting gears, the latest economic outlook from HRI is sounding
the alarm on a potential deeper recession here in Germany. Rising
insolvencies and real wages that are still lower than pre-pandemic
levels are painting a worrying picture.

In the world of Private Equity, experts are predicting a surge in
transaction volumes for the second half of the year. Germany, along
with the UK and Southern Europe, are expected to be at the
forefront of this trend.

Meanwhile, on the tech front, a new study from the US suggests that
electric air taxis—like those from Volocopter and Lilium—could soon
be flying at prices comparable to your regular taxi ride.

And lastly, some news on Varta: the struggling battery manufacturer
is getting a lifeline through debt restructuring and an investment
from Porsche. But it’s not all good news—shareholders are
unfortunately left with nothing.

That's today's business update. Thanks for tuning in to Business
Insights. See you next time!
