Frankfurt's DAX 40 rose 0.5% to around 25,300 on Monday, trying to recover ground after last week's weakness, amid relief from lower oil prices and some easing pressure on bond yields. Meanwhile, investors braced for a busy week of key economic and policy announcements, as well as a fresh batch of corporate earnings. Sector-wise, industrials, banks and pharma & healthcare were the standout performers. Bayer climbed as much as 3%, leading the benchmark’s gainers, after its prostate cancer drug Nubeqa demonstrated a 58% reduction in the risk of disease progression or death in high-risk patients. Other top performers included Siemens Energy, Hochtief, Airbus and MTU Aero Engines. Deutsche Bank and Commerzbank also advanced firmly.
