DAX Slips On Recession Worries

(RTTNews) - German stocks fell on Tuesday amid worries over economic downturn after top U.S. retailer Walmart cut its Q2 and full 2023-year guidance, citing a slowdown in consumer spending due to inflation fears.

Growing energy crisis also remained on investors' radar after Russian state-owned energy company Gazprom said it will further cut gas flows through Nord Stream 1, Russia's biggest gas pipeline to Europe.

The benchmark DAX dropped 46 points, or 0.4 percent, to 13,164 after losing 0.3 percent in the previous session.
