In particular, the General Index closed with gains of 1.41% at 634.96 points, while today it moved between 626.09 points (-0.01%) and 635.92 points (+ 1.56%). The turnover amounted to 62.5 million euros and the volume to 48.8 million units, while 6.1 million units were sold through previously agreed transactions (at Alpha Bank 6 million).

Today’s meeting at the Athens Stock Exchange had it all. The General Index started with significant gains, reaching up to 635 points, to lose most of them shortly after 14:30, where he even fought for the brand.
