Wednesday:
The unemployment rate in Germany continues to rise to 6.2%. This means that a total of 2.908 million people were registered as unemployed in December.
Friday:
$TMV (-1.86%) Teamviewer can rise significantly in pre-market trading. This is due to preliminary figures on turnover and EBITDA margin. Teamviewer can meet the forecast here. Turnover in 2025 was probably 767 million euros. The acquisition of 1E was a particularly positive surprise, with revenue growth also achieved for the first time.
Good news from the EU. After 25 years, the free trade agreement with the Mercosur states (Paraguay, Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay) is likely to be adopted. Ursula von der Leyen will travel to Paraguay next week for this purpose.
The US labor market report was worse than expected. This was well received for the time being, as it makes a further interest rate cut more likely.

Monday: 10:30 Sentix survey (EUR)
Tuesday: 14:30 Inflation data (USA)
Wednesday: 14:30 Producer prices (USA)
