Fundamental Highlights
Modest gain for the DAX yesterday, closing at 12374.7, as the German WPI figures released were higher than expected with investors' cautiousness on the rise as U.S-China trade war intensifies, while the market awaits the US Federal Reserve economic outlook and interest rate decision to be released today at 18:30 GMT. With the market anticipating a raise in interest rates, Powell's tone and remarks on forward guidance will dictate the price action for the Dollar and the equity markets on a global level.
