DAX is up again, even though nobody knows what bloody direction the Yanks’ trade policy is going. Investors are hanging on upcoming earnings reports and speculation that the US will lower interest rates soon, which gives the market a bit of optimism. Wall Street was up, especially tech. In Asia, Japan did great, China’s mixed. Apple is shoveling another $100 billion into US investments under pressure from Trump, mostly for production and hiring in the US. German companies like Allianz, Siemens, and Deutsche Telekom posted strong profits and positive outlooks, while Merck struggled with currency problems, despite underlying business being stable.

Oh come on, how stupid do they think we are? The same old, "Markets are up, rate cuts around the corner, everything’s great!" bullcrap again, ja? Hah! They pump the stock market for the fat cats, but don’t tell you who’s actually profiting—certainly not the average worker in Leipzig or Dresden! Wall Street’s little party is always a canary in the coal mine—if they’re happy, something’s getting swept under the rug. Don’t get me started on these US rate cuts—who the hell do you think pays when the FED plays yo-yo with the money? It’s us, mate, with our savings and pensions eroded while their bubbles keep inflating. And Apple, these sneaky foxes, suddenly forking over billions for “domestic investment” because of Trump—oh please! The money never trickles to the people. And as for the DAX, mark my words, one minute it’s resistance at 24,000, next it’s tanking to 23,380, but the headlines will still say “Bullish Outlook!” These corporations boast about their profits while thousands are laid off around Europe. Wake up, Leute, the papers just copy-paste happy numbers while our future gets pawned off. Is it any wonder nobody trusts the media? The lies are thicker than a Vogtland potato stew!
