The U.S. announced a 25% tariff on all car imports starting next week, pushing automaker stocks lower. Meanwhile, the EU expects Washington to impose double-digit tariffs across the bloc when Trump announces reciprocal levies on April 2, sources say. Trump also warned of more tariffs on the EU and Canada if they act against U.S. economic interests. The news weighed on the DAX 40, pressuring German automakers and exporters.
The DAX40 continues to exhibit bullish sentiment, breaking out from a period of sideways consolidation and pushing toward previous resistance and all-time highs (ATH). The prevailing uptrend supports further upside potential, with key resistance levels in focus.
Key Support and Resistance Levels
Resistance Level 1: 23,446
Resistance Level 2: 23,815
Resistance Level 3: 24,000 – 24,420
Support Level 1: 22,575
Support Level 2: 22,204
Support Level 3: 21,814
Conclusion:
The positive reaction to fiscal spending plans and geopolitical developments reinforces the bullish sentiment for DAX40. A sustained move above the nearest resistance at 23,446 could pave the way toward higher targets, while holding above support at 22,575 is crucial to maintaining the uptrend.
