The Greek stock market started Friday's (2/8) session with a negative influence from the sell-off in the international markets, which is moving on a downward trajectory for the second consecutive day. The General Index has already lost critical support points, while now even the 1,450 points are threatened.

Specifically, the GI is sliding by -1.86% and is trading at 1,447.02 points, with a daily high of 1,455.94 points and a daily low of 1,446.16 points. Banks are in the sellers' sights, recording a "dip" of -2.5%. 

An indicator of the sentiment is that not a single stock in the large-cap space is moving into positive territory, with the broader ratio of the session being 71 down shares versus just 11 up.

Among the most pressured banks, NBG is down 2.2%, with Piraeus and Eurobank at -2.9% and Alpha at -3%.

OPAP and Metlen are hovering around -1.7%, OTE is down more than 2.1%, Motor Oil is at -2%, Titan and GEK Terna are at -1.5%, and PPC is at -1.75%.

Some "defenses" are being attempted by Terna Energy, ELPE, EYDAP, and Aegean, which are the only stocks in the 25 that are limiting losses below -1%.

On the contrary, Autohellas, Coca-Cola, Cenergy, Hellaktor, and Elvalhalcor are also down more than 2%.
