Athens Stock Exchange: 1,300 units “under siege”

Today, the Greek stock market is moving above 1,300 points, which is testing its strength at the levels, which have been very difficult in the last few days. The general index recorded gains of 0.96% at 1,303.26 points, with turnover at 27 million euros, mainly due to two packages in Mytilene, worth 14 million euros.

Banks in focus

The banking industry is in focus today, with investors returning to the prospect of measures the government is planning to fully liquidate bad loans. The Heracles III scheme is among the measures promoted by the financial leadership, adding additional quality prospects to an industry that appears to be freeing itself from the bad “legacy” of the crisis.

After all, there are not a few analysts who believe that a policy that will improve the conditions in the Greek capital market, as well as the reduction of the transaction burden, will only work positively in a market that is preparing to return to the “great salons” of the developed world. A perspective that may not be immediate, but that can bring changes that in the long term will only be beneficial.
