Trading on European and Greek stock markets has seen no significant changes.
S&P 500 futures are trading at a slight premium of 0.23%, as Wall Street emerges from a two-day mini-sell-off with tech stocks in the crosshairs, the characteristics of which suggest a controlled “correction” following the recent “bubble.”
The trend for the S&P 500 remains bullish—on an annualized basis—with interim turbulence being part of the game. The change since the start of 2026 stands at +7.60%, while the weekly change is -0.74%—as if in an adjustment phase following the latest all-time high of 7,620 points.
In summary, this provides a near-term and longer-term view of the trend, useful primarily for short-term traders.
The DAX stands at 24,645, with losses widening to 1.45%; the CAC 40 is at 8,364, with gains reaching 0.32%; and the EuroStoxx Banks index is at 294.31 (-0.28%). The EuroStoxx Banks index limited its losses—from an initial low of 292.6 points—a development that helped maintain the buying trend on Euronext Athens.
The banking sector posted losses in the first 15 minutes, with the DTR falling to 2,806.89 points, followed by a gradual absorption of selling pressure that resulted in a “turnaround” into positive territory at 10:50 a.m., and it has remained firmly in positive territory since then. Trading volume stood at 120 million, with 21.83 million via pre-arranged orders—15.9 million shares traded—7.4 million in banking stocks—and a satisfactory distribution across specific blue-chip leaders.
The General Index stood at 2,485 (0.38%), and the FTSE25 at 6,308 (0.49%), with the session characterized by stock picking. This is a logical strategy, as portfolio rebalancing continues—hence the many block trades on a daily basis—following the market’s 17-year highs.
A large portion of inflows went to PPC and ADMIE, with buyers consistently outnumbering sellers at €23.20 and €4.67, respectively. Trading volume reached 890,000 shares in PPC and 3 million shares in ADMIE, suggesting that the demand not met during the rights offering is now active on the open market. The process is similar to that of PPC.
National Bank shares are at 15.59 euros, Eurobank at 4.226, Piraeus Bank at 9.22, and Alpha Bank at 4.034. It is widely acknowledged in the market that part of intraday trading has shifted from the banking sector to the energy sector, which explains the increased volatility in stocks (within the broader sector).
Coca-Cola HBC shares are at 54.70 (2.28%)—with buying interest from London, as we mentioned in our initial commentary—TITAN shares are at 53.70, AEGEAN at 12.70, AIA at 10.61, and OTE at 19.24; Jumbo at 22.34; Cenergy Holdings at 24.60—following the recent turbulence due to the placement—HelleniQ Energy at 10.69, and others.
Significant—by this stock’s standards—orders in PPA, with a 5.49% gain to a new high of 41.30 euros, are making waves. Inflows were also seen in the PPA share, which rose 1.91% to 39.30 euros, standing out among the FTSEMidCap stocks. With a new jump of 3.10% to 29.90 euros, KRI-KRI’s stock—with a market cap of just 12 million short of the one-billion threshold—is also drawing attention.
The stock ratio stands at 52/58, with a positive/negative sign—at 15:20.
