DEUTSCHER AKTIENINDEX 100 - DAX 100
A former price-weighted index that represented Germany's top traded 100 stocks. DAX is an abbreviation for Deutscher Aktienindex. The DAX 100 was formed using the 30 DAX equities and the 70 MDAX equities listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. Since March 24, 2003, the MDAX has included 50 equities and the former DAX 100 switched to the HDAX. The HDAX index reflects the price development of all shares in the DAX 30 (commonly referred to as the DAX), MDAX and TecDAX.
