Stock market performance: Siemens and SAP's shares faltering
Vibe Check: Stock Alert for SAP and Siemens
The tech world's on a wild ride, and SAP and Siemens shares are no exceptions. Here's the lowdown on where these stocks stand and what it could mean for investors.
SAP Share: Slipping but Still Sizzling?
SAP's been on a winning streak for months, but now there's a hiccup. Over the past three weeks, the share has dropped by a whopping 17%. What's causing the slip? Well, US tech stocks are struggling, and investors are flocking to special assets. Since SAP might not snag those benefits in Europe, its share is taking a backseat for now. The fall has sent the share below the 50-day line, leading some investors to wonder if the 200-day line at around 220 euros will be next. But those holding out for a bargain may find this a promising opportunity.
Diving deeper, SAP doesn't exactly shine in terms of P/E ratio at 37.6 or dividend yield at 1.00%. Compared to US shares with similar valuations, it might be wise to lock in some profits till things clear up.

Siemens: Riding the Waves of Special Assets
Siemens' future remains a bit of a mystery for investors. It could reap the benefits of special assets, but not as much as other European shares, perhaps. So, buy or sell? That's the question teasing the exchange. In principle, the Siemens share is holding strong, if a bit lower than its peak. The share could be a winner in the special assets race, but March 18 proves crucial - that's when the special assets vote happens in the Bundestag. If it passes, the Siemens share should rise again.
Siemens looks better-valued compared to SAP, with a P/E ratio of 18.2 and a dividend yield of 2.33%. Analysts continue to recommend the purchase, with a price target of 300 euros[1].

- In the current market situation, investors might find the recent drop in SAP's share price an attractive buying opportunity, despite its high P/E ratio and low dividend yield, as it hovers below the 50-day line.
- Meanwhile, Siemens share, with a lower P/E ratio and higher dividend yield than SAP, could potentially benefit from special assets, provided the vote in the Bundestag on March 18 passes favorably, making it a potential investment option for some.
