So, it was another record close for the DAX on Friday, at 19,473, rising 235 points on the session. The way things look right now and despite whatever misgivings about the direction, the DAX looks like it is increasingly set on a path to reach 20k at some point in the near future.

That said, the DAX futures are slightly in the red this morning, currently pricing a final daily opening for the quarter at around 19,440
