The challenge: Name the three best German stocks you would buy right now.

The difficulty: You have to choose at least 1 DAX stock and 1 MDAX stock.

I'll start. Probably an unpopular opinion, but as a DAX stock I would actually pick the German Merck $MRK (-0,22 %) as a DAX stock. I like pharma and see this as a very solid stock at a good price. As an MDAX stock, I would pick Carl Zeiss Meditec $AFX (+0,2 %) as this is an important topic for the future. I would fill the third place with Nemetschek $NEM (+1,42 %) to include one of the few German technology stocks. How does it look for you?
