The German stock index DAX has reached a new all-time high, surpassing 25,000 pts.
This is in stark contrast to the current state of the German economy and overall sentiment in the country.
complete blackout for parts of the city and 50k+ households in Berlin, the largest city in continental Europe, since yesterday morning. Officials say it will take four days to fix.. fucking ridiculous
The largest bank heist in postwar Germany occurred in Gelsenkirchen the other day, where robbers stole up to 30 million Euros from 3,200 safe deposit boxes.
Rumor has it that the German government is already lobbying hard behind the scenes for a German to become the next ECB president after Christine Lagarde’s term ends in 2027.
Berlin favors both Joachim Nagel, the current Bundesbank chair, and Isabel Schnabel, current member of the ECB’s executive board, over other candidates such as Klaas Knot (former Dutch central bank governor) and Pablo Hernandez (former Spanish central bank governor).
No German has ever been appointed as ECB president and Berlin feels that the time is now right.
However, with Ursula von der Leyen (President of the European Commission and de facto ruler) in place, securing another German in the most influential Eurozone job will be difficult.
