Market Comment
ASE ended lower 1.3% on €269m volume, with investors taking some profits after recent rally.

NBG closed at €26.70, 1.11% lower, with 2.86m shares traded. EUROB GA
closed down 0.41 % with 2.26m shares traded. OPAP closed up 1.40% on 1.12m
shares being traded.

Europe ended marginally higher while internationally markets declined after a
leading analyst downgraded major U.S. bank Wells Fargo & Co.

Domestic interest remains on banks and the developments generated by Alpha’s
right issue.

We expect a lower opening in the domestic market.
