Just after the U.S. stock market surged as the Democratic Party won a big victory in the midterm elections and regained control of Congress from President Trump's Republican Party, the German stock market rose to a record high on the 5th.

Around 9 a.m. GMT on the 5th (5 p.m. Taiwan time on the 5th), Germany's blue-chip stock index DAX rose nearly 0.7% to 26,646.32 points, about 30 points more than the previous index record. Among them, the best performers were "Heidelberg Materials" and German e-commerce giant Zalando, with increases of 3.8% and 4.4% respectively.

After the U.S. Democratic Party retaken both houses of Congress and President Trump stated that he accepted the results of the midterm elections, U.S. stocks rose sharply on the 4th due to reduced political uncertainty. All three major indexes closed in the red, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average rising 1,569.40 points or 3.03% to close at 53,356.12 points.
