FAQs
The DAX, also known as the Deutscher Aktienindex (German stock index), is a blue-chip stock market index that represents the performance of the 40 largest and most liquid companies listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (Börse Frankfurt) in Germany.
Companies are selected and weighted mainly according to their free-float market capitalisation, meaning larger companies generally have a greater influence on the index.
The DAX includes businesses from industries such as technology, automotive, industrials, financial services, healthcare and consumer goods, making it a widely followed benchmark for the German equity market.
The index was launched in 1988 with 30 constituents and expanded from 30 to 40 companies in September 2021.
