Dusseldorf A week after its record high, the leading German index, the Dax, has returned to its old trading range and is stabilizing at just under 16,000 points. One reason for this is that most companies are earning well and often even making record profits this year, despite expensive energy, rising prices and interest rates, the war in Ukraine and fears of recession.
But there are also stocks that have not yet realized their potential. In 2023, four Dax companies have ordered a radical restructuring of the group, including cost savings and a stronger focus, up to and including a change of boss. Not entirely voluntarily, but because losses, collapsing cash flows, high debts or the miserable share price development force them to do so.
