The DAX looks poised to chase a run at fresh record highs once again amid the more optimistic start here. This comes with US futures also holding higher on the day. S&P 500 futures are up 0.5% currently. The more positive development in the Middle East here is in part helping, alongside a sharp drop in oil prices as well as such i.e. less inflation worries. WTI crude is down well over 4% to $68.45 on the day.
