DAX Marginally Higher In Cautious Trade
(RTTNews) - German stocks were little changed on Friday as investors continued to monitor the latest political developments in France and South Korea, and awaited the release of U.S. payrolls data later in the day that could alter the odds of a Federal Reserve rate cut later this month.
Traders currently price in a 68 percent chance of a rate cut at the December policy meeting.

The benchmark DAX was up 23 points, or 0.1 percent, at 20,382 after gaining 0.6 percent the previous day.
