Stock Market: Intense Pressures with 'Good Morning'

The Athens Stock Exchange is experiencing significant pressure as investors lock in profits amidst international volatility.

The Athens Stock Exchange is currently facing intense pressures, as investors continue to secure the substantial profits amassed in 2026, influenced by ongoing global market volatility. This situation has been exacerbated by a recent sell-off in technology stocks on Wall Street, which has emboldened sellers in the Greek market, bringing attention back to key support levels around 2,300 points after a recent climb towards peaks of 2,407 points.

During the latest trading session, the General Index of the Athens Stock Exchange reported a decline of 1.38%, settling at 2,322.90 points, which reflects a loss of more than 32 points compared to Friday's closing figure of 2,355.30 points. The daily trading range has fluctuated within 19 points, varying from 2,315.48 to 2,334.60 points, with transaction volumes hovering around €17 million.

The volatility in the Athens Stock Exchange continues to cause concern as it runs the risk of interrupting the impressive upward streak of eight consecutive positive weeks, raising questions about the sustainability of this growth in the face of external pressures.
