SAP shares tumble, weigh on Germany's DAX
Shares of German software giant SAP fell sharply on the trading day, losing around five percent and breaking a short‑term upward trend line. The drop brings the stock nearly 14 percent lower than its early‑June peak, turning it into the worst‑performing component of the DAX index.
The decline spread to other German software firms, with Nemetschek down about 1.9 percent and TeamViewer sliding roughly 3 percent. Investors are awaiting Oracle's fourth‑quarter earnings, which are expected to influence sentiment toward the broader software sector amid concerns about AI‑driven disruption.
Analysts note that the market had previously priced in a potential rebound for software stocks, but the renewed sell‑off suggests lingering caution among investors.
