Specifically, this relates to regional US financial institutions that have made problems with loans public. Investors were also confronted with the start of the US reporting season. Due to the ongoing partial shutdown of the US government, the economic data calendar was once again extremely poor.<\/p>\n<h2>DAX\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Uncertainty due to regional US banks\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The DAX already fell below the psychologically important 24,000-point mark on Friday. The trade dispute is hitting the real economy, while the crisis at smaller regional US banks is affecting confidence. Together, the two are acting like a toxic cocktail on the markets. If the situation at the regional banks worsens further or the trade conflict escalates, there is the threat of further trouble. Investors fear a d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu. A week ago, US President Donald Trump caught investors on the wrong foot.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>No solution yet to the tariff dispute between Washington and Beijing <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The trade dispute between the world's largest economies also threw a spanner in the works for investors this week. A week ago, the US president announced additional tariffs of 100% on Chinese imports, sending markets around the world into turmoil. The background to this was Beijing's announcement that it wanted to impose stricter controls on the export of rare earth technologies.<\/p>\n<p>On Sunday, just two days later, he wrote on his online platform Truth Social. \u201eDon't worry about China, everything will be fine. The highly respected President Xi has just had a bad moment,\u201c Trump said. Xi \u201edoes not want a depression\u201c for his country and neither does he himself, he added. Beijing, meanwhile, spoke of a so-called \u201edouble standard\u201c.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>ZEW weaker than expected - but slight improvement compared to the previous month<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>At 39.3 points, the ZEW index was weaker than expected in advance (40.5 points), although better than in the previous month (37.3 points). However, the assessment of the current economic situation continued to fall. At minus 80 points, the situation indicator for Germany was 3.6 points below the previous month's value.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Publication of US inflation data scheduled for next Friday<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>US inflation data should have been published on Wednesday, but was canceled due to the ongoing government shutdown in the US. This data is due to be published next Friday (24.10.2025).<\/p>\n<h2><strong>\u201eBeige Book\u201c produces no new findings - EU inflation picks up in September<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Late on Wednesday evening, however, the Fed's economic report \u201eBeige Book\u201c was published, which, on balance, did not provide any new insights. The US economy has hardly changed in recent weeks. According to the Fed, the labor market has been largely stable.<\/p>\n<p>The EU inflation data published today is also likely to have provided food for thought. According to the statistics office Eurostat, inflation in the eurozone rose by 2.2% in September (compared to the same month last year), which is above the target of 2.0%.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Dow Jones Industrial Average Index<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1718\" height=\"1456\" class=\"wp-image-64105\" src=\"https:\/\/www.captrader.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ein-bild-das-text-screenshot-diagramm-reihe-en-9.png\" alt=\"An image containing text, screenshot, diagram, series, etc. AI-generated content may contain errors.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.captrader.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ein-bild-das-text-screenshot-diagramm-reihe-en-9.png 1718w, https:\/\/www.captrader.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ein-bild-das-text-screenshot-diagramm-reihe-en-9-300x254.png 300w, https:\/\/www.captrader.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ein-bild-das-text-screenshot-diagramm-reihe-en-9-1024x868.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.captrader.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ein-bild-das-text-screenshot-diagramm-reihe-en-9-768x651.png 768w, https:\/\/www.captrader.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ein-bild-das-text-screenshot-diagramm-reihe-en-9-1536x1302.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.captrader.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ein-bild-das-text-screenshot-diagramm-reihe-en-9-14x12.png 14w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1718px) 100vw, 1718px\" \/><\/strong><\/h2>\n<h2><strong>US banks provide interim support with strong figures<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In the reporting season, both Morgan Stanley (ISIN: US6174464486) and Bank of America (ISIN: US0605051046) were able to report leaps in profits for the third quarter thanks to good business in investment banking.
