Frankfurt's DAX 40 fell 0.3% to trade below 25,500 on Tuesday, after a strong start to the week, in line with other European peers. The renewed rise in oil prices and geopolitical risks kept investors cautious, with attention turning to the UN General Assembly for signs of diplomatic progress to end the Iran conflict. US President Donald Trump is due to address the assembly later today and has left open the possibility of meeting Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian. Insurers, banks, autos were the hardest hit, while utilities, tech and retailers recorded the strongest gains.
