DAX Climbs Ahead Of PMI Data

(RTTNews) - German stocks rose sharply on Tuesday as traders returned to their desks after a long holiday weekend.

Investors looked ahead to a busy week of economic calendar, with PMI data, inflation figures and the all-important U.S. jobs data in focus.

Following better-than-expected Caixin manufacturing PMI numbers from China, investors awaited Euro area and U.S. manufacturing PMIs for further direction.
