Stock markets on the way to new ATHs + Inflation in the USA on the decline + Recession just avoided thanks to interest rate cuts + RTL share in focus?


Sentiment on the stock markets has improved again, investors are in record mood again. Inflation in the USA is still on the decline.


The ECB has cut interest rates as expected, Further interest rate cuts are likely to followalthough probably not immediately.


And it is a foregone conclusion that the US Federal Reserve will also cut interest rates next week. However, the most important reason why the stock markets are rising again is the belief among investors that the central banks have initiated the cycle of interest rate cuts just in time, to avoid a recession.


After the ECB, the US Federal Reserve's monetary policy decision is on the agenda this week. It is a foregone conclusion that the monetary authorities will cut key interest rates. The only question is whether it will be just 25 basis points (bp) or 50 bp. The stock markets would probably welcome a major move in an initial reaction, but only briefly, as such a move would possibly trigger new growth concerns. According to Commerzbank, a cut of 50 bp could be evidence for many investors that the Fed is really worried about the economy and may have waited too long to turn interest rates around. The Fed is unlikely to want to give such an impression.


After the boxing match on Saturday between Stefan Raab and Regina Halmig, the RTL share $RTLL (-1,15%) could get a boost. The reason for this is that Stefan Raab wants to do shows again. There you can apply and win €1 million every week. Now RTL has a hook, in addition to American football, to lure people out of their pockets to subscribe to RTL+. Because the two programs mentioned can largely only be watched via RTL. A large increase in current subscriptions could therefore provide a boost.

All very interesting except for the RTL share, anyone who watches this channel and where possible still invests has given up on life.

Probably because Stefan Raab is coming back, but I didn't find the boxing match really exciting. I think it's cool that he's doing shows again, but I think he's too old now to build on the success of the golden age of TV with TV Total, high diving, etc. I don't subscribe to RTL+ for that. And I don't subscribe to RTL+ for that either.

@Alumdria It is wrong to only look at yourself when making decisions for the masses. I'm also looking forward to the next figures or whether something will leak out. In general, RTL is on the right track, albeit too late, and they are creating incentives to take out a subscription through various brands. I myself have one a few months a year because of football.
