The Athens Stock Exchange proceeded today (13/11) to assimilate the gains, as the fatigue from the recent rise led to several liquidations.
Due to the uncertainty in Europe as a result of Donald Trump's election victory in the US and the potential trade "war" scenarios, the Greek market declined below 1,420 points.
However, Athens counted only the second fall in the last 10 sessions, having gained more than +2.5% in this period and leaving significantly behind the recent nadir of 1,381 points (October 30).
