That is a wild exaggeration. They are only buying the New York Stock Exchange. I imagine that the Deutsche Börse's looming takeover of New York financial industry must be causing some silent consternation in Wall Street.
I read the Frankfort Burse's website and love those incredible German words. But secretly I prefer antisemite websites. I miss Prof. Kevin MacDonald's elucubrations. There, we Jews are eternally manipulating international finances and exercising our control of the world's gold and money, we joyfully inject our mighty genes into innocent blond maidens. What a contrast with this grey, depressing, dry announcement that the Germans are coming and taking over. Dry, yes, the Germans of our days have reformed and even have given up their insaciable thirst for beer.

That's a good old Jewish joke.
Another one I like is about the world-renowned talking horse of Odessa. That one is the most Jewish joke of all, though Jews are not mentioned anywhere in it.
The Germans taking over NYSE is no joke. But now that you mentioned the talking horse of Odessa, you are morally indebted to the audience to tell the whole joke.
So, the traveling circus comes to Berdichev. They put up posters saying "come see the internationally renowned, world famous Talking Horse of Odessa!"
The whole town is talking. They say, "we've all been to the circus except for the little kids, we've all seen the dancing bears, the acrobats, the sword swallowers and the fire eaters and everything, but a Talking Horse! This we've never seen." So they all buy tickets and the whole town packs into the balagan. They're sitting in there six deep on each other's laps.
So, they see the dancing bears, the sword swallowers, the acrobats and fire eaters, but all night they're waiting for the piece d'resistance, the Talking Horse. At the end of the night, the balagan goes dark. The projector shines upon the ringmaster, resplendent in his three-piece suit, who announces: "and now, Ladies and Gentlemen! The act you've all been waiting for! The World-Renounced, the Internationally Acclaimed" (drum roll) "Talking Horse of Odessa!!!"
They lead the horse out from backstage. It is about thirty years old. It has a sway back. Its ribs are sticking out. It's covered with mange. One eye is missing, the other has a cataract on it, and it is limping. Head hung low, it is led up to the ringmaster. He reaches back and slaps it in the face as hard as he can. The horse rolls its eye towards the heavens and goes, "oh, God, when will I die already?!"
Hahaha. Good!
