Probability
38%

DAX closed at 24,831 on July 17, already –4.1% below the intra-month high of 25,900 (July 6). Drivers: ongoing US-Iran military operations (6th night of US strikes + Iranian retaliation), global oil shock (+10% in a week to ~$81.78 WTI), revived inflation fears and Fed rate hike expectations. Additional headwind from Japan's historic Upper House election defeat (LDP loses majority for first time since 1955). Falling to 24,500 requires a further ~1.3% decline. No existing DAX daily-level open prediction for July 22 on the platform.

Verdict: Miss
Der DAX (XETRA) schloss am 22. Juli 2026 bei 25.155 Punkten (+0,58% / +144 Punkte) – deutlich über der Schwelle von 24.500 Punkten. Statt des erwarteten Rückgangs legte der Index zu. Treiber waren überzeugende Quartalszahlen von DAX-Unternehmen (u. a. Airbus und GEA), die die geopolitischen Belastungsfaktoren (US-Iran-Spannungen, Ölpreisschock) überkompensierten. Die Vorhersage verfehlte das Ziel um rund 655 Punkte (~2,7%). Quellen: Investing.com ('Germany stocks higher at close of trade; DAX up 0.65%'), aktiencheck.de (DAX-Daytrading 22.
