Stirring Up Interest in German Stocks Over the Holidays: A Focus on Fresenius Medical Care, Deutsche Wohnen, and LPKF
Here's the scoop on why German stocks are creating a ruckus during the holidays and which stocks, including Fresenius Medical Care, Deutsche Wohnen, and LPKF, you should keep an eyeful on.
Covestro's Exit and FMC's Entrance
Come December 27, the Covestro stock will bid farewell to the DAX, making room for dialysis powerhouse Fresenius Medical Care (FMC) to step in. Since summer's end, FMC stock has showcased a new upward trend after years of strife. Its entry into the DAX could stir up a buying spree in many ETFs and garner increased attention. With a P/E ratio hovering around 20.0 and a dividend yield of 2.65%, FMC stock presents a decent investment opportunity. BÖRSE ONLINE advocates diving in with a target price of 49 euros, a number that might rise post-DAX entry.
So, what will replace FMC in the MDAX? Let's see!
Keep an Eye Out for Deutsche Wohnen and LPKF
If FMC joins the DAX, a new contender will leapfrog into the MDAX. It's speculated to be the real estate giant, Deutsche Wohnen. After the beginning of the interest rate hiking cycle, Deutsche Wohnen stock has been on a downward spiral, but recent months have revealed a potential bottom. The stock might initiate a new upward trend with a P/E ratio forecasted to be around 14 in 2025 and a higher dividend yield of 3.85%. BÖRSE ONLINE advises snagging the Deutsche Wohnen stock with a target price of 40 euros, envisioning a near-double return.
Since the Deutsche Wohnen stock's move will leave a gap in the SDAX on December 27, laser specialist LPKF is expected to join the ranks. Like its compatriots, the LPKF stock is currently limping but stylishly sporting a P/E ratio of 27 in 2025, sans dividends. BÖRSE ONLINE urges investors to get a piece of the LPKF Laser stock action with a target price of 15 euros.
