The Athens Stock Exchange is looking for a first reaction after the significant losses of the previous week, which have brought the General Index at a distance of more than 6% compared to the recent highs of 1,502 points.

The climate of nervousness and uncertainty prevailing in Europe, due to the political developments in France, is the main "wound" for the Greek market, which is unable to self-regulate and absorb the exogenous shocks.

More specifically, in today's session, the General Index is up slightly by 0.44% to 1,413.08 points, gaining six points compared to Friday's close (1,406.91 points).

The arc of daily fluctuations extends to seven points (from 1,412.29 to 1,419.49 points), with the turnover of transactions ranging at 4.5 million in the first 20 minutes.

National Bank shares are up +0.38% and 7.92 euros, Piraeus shares follow at +0.14% and 3.604 euros, Eurobank shares are trading +0.39% and 2.055 euros; and Alpha Bank shares are down -0.26% and 1.536 euros.
