German Industry Earnings: Hugo Boss reports Q2 sales down 10% but a stronger gross margin, while Lufthansa flags profit pressure from fuel costs and a pilot strike. Corporate Finance & Markets: BlackRock launches its first tokenised money-market funds in Europe, and Continental posts mixed results after restructuring. Manufacturing & Jobs: BMW plans to shed 8,000 roles, adding to the broader German jobs churn. Defense & Supply Chains: Reuters reports Lockheed Martin talks to secure U.S. scandium and germanium supplies as Washington tightens critical-mineral rules.
