The benchmark DAX was down 15 points at 15,236 after ending on a flat note Tuesday. Sportswear firm Adidas jumped more than 4 percent after raising its 2023 revenue guidance.

Infineon Technologies rose 0.6 percent. The German semiconductor maker, Hyundai Motor Co., and Kia Corp. have signed a multi-year supply deal for silicon carbide and silicon power semiconductors. The financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
