Nervousness is high before the important ECB event: the day before, the Dax temporarily fell to its lowest level since mid-August, but then recovered somewhat. The European Central Bank (ECB) will speak out in the early afternoon. Experts are more divided than ever, and there is also great uncertainty on the financial markets as to what the monetary authorities will decide.
