Zollsorgen belasten Börsen "Es herrscht nun erstmal großes Chaos" 23.02.2026

Market participants are facing renewed uncertainty following President Donald Trump's fluctuating tariff announcements, which have negatively impacted stock markets. After initially gaining on Friday, the DAX lost 0.55 percent by early afternoon, trading at 25,122 points, though the 25,000-point mark remained unchallenged. The Euro retreated from highs above 1.18 dollars to 1.1778 dollars, and gold prices also saw a slight decline after an initial rise. Bitcoin experienced a nearly five percent drop to 64,338 dollars as investor risk appetite diminished due to trade policy ambiguity. Despite these market reactions, the economic consequences are currently considered manageable, with the German auto industry unaffected by a specific Supreme Court ruling. The situation has created significant confusion, prompting the EU to reportedly suspend ratification of a trade agreement with the US, while escalating tensions with Iran also loom over global markets.
