DAX Falls on Friday
Frankfurt's DAX 40 edged down 0.3% to trade below 26,700 on Friday, as profit booking emerged after a four-day rally that sent the index to record highs. Meanwhile, market sentiment remained cautious amid rising oil prices and bond yields, which fuelled inflation concerns and expectations of tighter monetary policy, offsetting optimism over strong corporate earnings. Attention also remained focused on Nvidia and the wider semiconductor industry, following CEO Jensen Huang's resignation.
