On Thursday afternoon, after the release of the latest US labor market figures, the Vienna Stock Exchange was still clearly in the black. The leading Austrian ATX index had risen 1.04 percent to 2,239.16 points as of 2.35 pm The European stock market environment was also positive.
In the US, the latest labor market data came as a slightly positive surprise. Last week, initial jobless claims in the United States fell by 130,000 to 881,000. Experts expected 950,000 new applications. The mood on Wall Street could now provide more business impulse to Europe, after the Nasdaq tech exchange and the market-wide S&P 500 index continued their record trajectory there the night before.
In the domestic market, there are only a very small number of company-level reports. Lenzing’s action ranked first in Vienna. The fiber maker’s papers were 3.2 percent more expensive. Behind them, Andritz shares gained 2.7 percent in value. CA Immo shareholders could also expect a 2.7 percent plus.
The heavily weighted banks were also clearly positive. BAWAG improved by 1.9 percent. Erste Group and Raiffeisen Bank International each increased 0.6 percent.
The night before, the Vienna Stock Exchange announced that the composition of the ATX will remain unchanged for the next few months. However, brickmaker Wienerberger is moving up on the ATX five instead of the BAWAG Group. The trigger was Wienerberger’s largest floating capitalization in the past five days. Wienerberger newspapers gained 1.5 percent.
