The DAX fell below the psychologically important 25,000-point mark on Tuesday, tracking Asian markets where a correction had set in, particularly among technology stocks. After a recent record run at stock exchanges in Japan and South Korea, investors took profits. This also weighed on the DAX, which had reached its highest level since early June at 25,176 points on Monday, coming within 330 points of its record high from January.
Negotiations between the United States and Iran provided little impetus on Tuesday. Talks on a framework agreement to finally end the war are currently continuing at a technical level, said US Vice President JD Vance.
According to the government in Tehran, Iran does not plan to allow inspectors from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) into nuclear facilities damaged during the war. There are no such plans, said Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei. There is also no protocol for such inspections. He added that no meeting with IAEA chief Rafael Grossi had taken place in Switzerland. However, Iran will continue to fulfill its obligations as a member of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and under its safeguards agreement with the IAEA.
