DAX Inches Higher As China Unveils Plans To Rescue Property Sector

(RTTNews) - German stocks advanced on Monday after China unveiled sweeping measures to rescue its ailing property sector.

The benchmark DAX was up 36 points, or 0.3 percent, at 14,263 after gaining 0.6 percent on Friday.

Rheinmetall AG, an automotive and arms maker, jumped 3 percent. The company announced its agreement with Spain's MaxamCorp. Holding S.L. to acquire Expal Systems S.A, a Madrid-based ammunition maker.
