DE40 (D1 interval)
DAX broke above the 50-day exponential moving average (blue line on the chart) and tested another important resistance point, which was the local top of the consolidation zone of the session from the beginning of the second half of November. From a technical point of view, DE40 seems to maintain a general uptrend until the 100-day line (purple line) is broken on high volume, so it is worth watching now whether this index will be able to stay above this zone permanently and whether it will be able to close today’s trade above the 50-day EMA. If such a scenario were to occur, it could mean an increase in the chances for the general continuation of the upward trend. On the other hand, staying between the previously mentioned exponentials could encourage the bears to break them and initiate a deeper downward correction.

Corporate News
The leader of the declines in today’s German cash session is Commerzbank (CBK.DE). UniCredit SpA CEO Andrea Orcel signaled that taking over Commerzbank AG is not his current priority after launching a takeover bid in his home market. The proposed takeover of domestic rival Banco BPM SpA for around 10 billion euros reduces the “need for closure on the other side,” Orcel said in a conference call regarding Commerzbank.
