Der DAX setzt seine Erholung fort und gewinnt 0,5 % auf 22.680 Punkte, auch wenn er zum Handelsschluss klar unter dem Tageshoch bleibt. Rückenwind kommt aus den USA: Hoffnungen auf ein mögliches Ende des Konflikts zwischen den USA und dem Iran treiben Dow Jones, S&P 500 und Nasdaq an. Gleichzeitig zeigt der Quartalsrückblick, wie nervös die Märkte geblieben sind: Der DAX verlor im ersten Quartal knapp 8 %, Bundesanleihen waren ebenfalls kein sicherer Hafen.
