Intense nervousness, but upward efforts are currently showing on the Greek stock market, with sellers continuing their orders with less intensity, but also buyers absorbing offers effectively. The general index recorded gains of 0.50% at 1,239.90 points, with turnover at 21 million euros.
Today’s “weight”
The “favorite” title of the domestic investors, Mytileneos, is today under the pressure of the dividend cut, amounting to 1.178 euros per share, with the -2.89% recorded being the main weight of the market. A more or less expected picture, with this week’s cuts adding to the turmoil in a market that was already showing signs of fatigue in the first half of the year’s rally.
Nevertheless, buyers remain at the terminals and are ready for any move, as shown by the volatility in the signs of many securities. And this confirms that the market’s outlook has not changed since Sunday’s widely expected election result, nor has any of the catalysts for the rise of the last interval been undone.
On the dashboard
In terms of stocks, Ellactor, OPAP, National Bank, Piraeus Bank, PPC, Eurobank, Terna Energy and Motor Oil stand out with their gains, while Aegean, Sarantis, OTE, Alpha Bank, Quest, Lambda, Jumbo, Cenergy and GEK Terna are moving positively . On the other hand, Autohellas, EYDAP, ELHA and Hellenic Petroleum are moving negatively.
