DAX Little Changed With German Politics In Focus
(RTTNews) - German stocks were little changed on Friday after posting sharp gains in the previous session.
Politics were in focus, with opposition leader Friedrich Merz accusing Chancellor Olaf Scholz of seeking to delay an early election until March purely for party political advantage.
Merz not only rejected Scholz's approach and reiterated his demand for a January vote, given that Europe's biggest economy urgently needs additional measures to restore meaningful growth.
