DAX Tumbles As Banks Drag On Contagion Fears
(RTTNews) - German stocks plunged on Friday, as banks suffered heavy losses on concerns over the collapse of pro-crypto Silvergate bank coupled with the hawkish stance taken by the U.S. Federal Reserve.

The benchmark DAX was down 263 points, or 1.7 percent, at 15,370 after ending flat with a positive bias the previous day.
