iShares MSCI Germany tracks the German market — SAP, Siemens, Allianz, Deutsche Telekom and Munich Re are the largest holdings; the same market as the DAX. The German index reflects an export-heavy industrial economy: autos, machinery and chemicals move with global growth and energy prices.
This is a US-listed exchange-traded fund, not the country's index itself. It trades in dollars during the US session. It moves in the same direction as the local index, but currency moves and the session offset keep the percentages from matching exactly.

Average close over the last 50, 100 and 200 trading days. Above the average, buyers led that stretch; below it, sellers did. The percentage next to it is the gap.
