DAX Declines On China Growth Concerns

(RTTNews) - German stocks traded lower on Wednesday after a private survey showed China's services activity expanded at the slowest pace in five months in June, adding to worries about a faltering post-pandemic recovery in the world's second-largest economy.

The benchmark DAX was down 78 points, or half a percent, at 15,961 after declining 0.3 percent the previous day.

Evotec SE, a drug company, jumped nearly 3 percent. The company announced that its unit Just - Evotec Biologics, Inc. has secured a second contract from the US department of defense for $74 million.
