DAX Inches Higher Ahead Of Key Inflation Data

(RTTNews) - German stocks were moving higher on Wednesday, as investors awaited crucial Eurozone inflation data later in the day as well as Fed Chair Jerome Powell's speech that could give further insight into future interest rate hikes.

The benchmark DAX edged up 68 points, or half a percent, to 14,423 after losing 0.2 percent the previous day.

BioNTech rose about 1 percent after it entered into a global collaboration with Poland's Ryvu Therapeutics to jointly develop and commercialize immuno-modulatory small molecule candidates.
