周二下午，法兰克福DAX指数下跌近2%，收于23140点左右，交易员们关注着德国议会的第二轮投票。保守党基民盟主席、最有可能成为总理的弗里德里希·梅尔茨在第一轮投票中仅获得310票，未达到联邦议院多数席位所需的316票，第二轮投票正在进行中。与此同时，在美联储周三做出决定之前，市场关注的焦点仍然是正在进行的财报季。在企业方面，科技股、银行、零售商和汽车股是跌幅最大的股票之一。其他公司在业绩乐观后也出现了上涨。Hugo Boss的营收大幅增长近7%。费森尤斯医疗在公布强劲的第一季度业绩后上涨了4%以上，大陆集团在创下四年来的销售新高后上涨了2.4%。Zalando还公布了好于预期的第一季度销售额，并重申了全年的指导方针。
Frankfurt's DAX pared some losses of nearly 2% to trade around 23,140 on Tuesday afternoon, as traders eyed the second round of voting in the German Parliament. A second vote is underway after Friedrich Merz, head of the conservative CDU and the favourite to become chancellor, fell short of the 316 votes needed for a majority in the Bundestag, receiving only 310 in the first round. Meanwhile, the market focus remained on the ongoing earnings season, before the Fed's decision on Wednesday. On the corporate front, tech, banks retailers, auto stocks were among the top losers. Other companies saw gains following upbeat results. Hugo Boss surged nearly 7% on a revenue beat. Fresenius Medical Care rose over 4% after reporting strong Q1 results, and Continental gained 2.4% following a four-year sales high. Zalando also posted better-than-expected Q1 sales and reaffirmed its full-year guidance.
