DAX Down 0.54% in October 15 Snapshot; Return Basis Matters

DAX was at 25,161.89 points, down 0.54%, in Deutsche Börse’s Xetra table dated October 15, 2026 and stamped 13:59:32. The table showed the previous trading day’s close at 25,298.61 points. This is a dated snapshot, not a verified final closing result or a guarantee of a live quote.

The observation and its limits

No explicit delay or time-zone label was printed next to this quote table. CapKet has therefore not converted that clock to Indian time or called the reading real-time. The later checking time below is not the quote time.

Why the return version matters

STOXX identifies the same ISIN as DAX in its EUR Gross Return version. This is the familiar dividend-inclusive performance benchmark, rather than a price-only DAX variant. Dividend treatment changes what the index measures, so readers should match the return version before comparing performance.

The levels are index points, not euros paid for an individual share. The cash benchmark is also different from a DAX futures contract. The day range shown in the snapshot describes the observed session range; it does not guarantee the eventual high, low or close.
