The Dax gained a little on Thursday in a low-impact environment. However, he did not manage to break the round mark of 16,000 points based on the closing price. For a few days now, the leading German index has been stuck at the mark. On Corpus Christi he crossed the finish line with a plus of 0.18 percent to 15,989.96 points. The MDax for medium-sized companies closed 0.15 percent higher at 27,182.35 points.
