DAX 40

DAX 40 index, the German large-cap equity benchmark.

DAX 40 is part of the EU/UK Equity category. European markets carry the sovereign debt overhang of the post-2010 era in their pricing. Bund-BTP spreads remain the cleanest gauge of periphery stress, while HICP drives ECB policy expectations. UK macro diverges post-Brexit, with sterling volatility and Gilt-Bund spreads carrying political risk premia that sometimes detach entirely from U.S. moves.

DAX 40 is updated once per day after market close. Each metric page on Convex shows the exact time of the last data update and provides historical data going back up to five years.

Convex sources DAX 40 data from live market data providers including CoinGecko for crypto and major exchanges for equities and commodities. Data is fetched automatically and displayed alongside interactive charts, AI analysis, and historical context.

The DAX 40 page includes an interactive chart with selectable time ranges (1 month to 5 years), percentage changes over multiple timeframes, a table of recent readings, AI-generated analysis, and links to related metrics and comparisons.
