DAX 40

Key insight

26,000 is the line in the sand — a weekly close below invalidates the 2026 breakout; above 26,400 opens 27,000. EUR/USD at 1.1616 adds FX drag on export earnings, keeping upside capped near-term.

26,210 holds above the 26,000 round-number base but fails to reclaim 26,400 resistance — trend is intact yet momentum stalling at month-end with EUR/USD at 1.1616 squeezing exporters.

Main risk

EUR/USD strength at 1.1616

EUR/USD at 1.1616 compresses DAX exporter margins — every 5-cent EUR rise cuts ~3–4% from blue-chip EPS estimates, capping index upside.
