Frankfurt / Main (dpa) - Rising yields on the US bond market caused another setback on the German stock market on Friday.
Right at the start of trading, the Dax fell back below the 14,000 point mark.
As recently as the middle of the week, the leading index had risen to just under 14,200 points, setting a record.
The current rise in interest rates on US government bonds, triggered by vague and generally calm statements by US Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell the evening before, is now again inhibiting interest in stocks.
The Dax fell 1.00 percent in early trading to 13,915.64 points.
However, this still shows an increase of just under one percent over the course of the week.
The MDax of medium-sized companies fell on Friday by 1.19 percent to 30,939.44 points.
The leading Eurozone index EuroStoxx 50 lost 1.09 percent to 3664.37 points on Friday morning.
