Concerns about interest rates also weighed on the German stock market in the middle of the week. In the first few minutes of trading, the Dax fell by 0.31 percent to 15,350.37 points. The leading German index thus followed weak targets from the USA and Asia.

The MDax lost 0.59 percent to 28,541.93 points, and the leading eurozone index, the EuroStoxx 50, fell by 0.35 percent to 4,235.64 points. "Anxiety about interest rates is spoiling market sentiment," is how the experts at the Swiss bank Credit Suisse summarized market activity.
