Two weeks ago, took the crash in equity markets. On Thursday it was then the first glimmer of hope that the situation calms down, then on Friday we went on up. The prices recovered the second consecutive day, the German stock index (DAX) rose again, even at times over the mark of 6000 points. Also, the nervousness subsided a little, as suggested by the VDAX Volatility Index, which measures the volatility of the market. From its high of around 55 meters, he has now fallen back to at least 45 points. That's still no relief, but the acute panic seems to be over.

At its lows of the past days there were very nearly 25 percent.
