15,79% Source: Own data collection and processing based on information available from: https://www. investing.com To be able to compare the performance of the indices to the performance of car manufacturers on stock market, we used simple averages. It means that the performance of German companies (BMW, Daimler and Volkswagen) was compared to the performance of German index DAX 30 and that the performance of French companies was compared to the performance of French index CAC 40. This means that for example the year over year performance of Daimler was compared to the year over year performance of index DAX 30 every single year for the chosen time period. This calculation was done with every car manufacturer and every index of which the car manufacturer is a part of. Then those 5 averages (of those 5 carmakers) were summed and divided by five (total number of car manufacturers that this was counted for). This enabled to create Table 3 that shows the direct comparison of performance of car manufacturers to the performance to the indices on the stock market (in broader context see also Šaroch et all, 2021).
