Greek stock market index rises 2.24% as Elvalhalcor and Viohalco lead gains

The Athens Stock Exchange’s General Index closed at 2,475.98 points, up 0.17% in the session and 2.24% for the week, approaching the 2,500‑point mark. Since early June the index has risen 4.35%, and it is up 16.75% since the start of the year.

Trading value jumped to €457.38 million, driven by portfolio reshuffles after the FTSE Russell and Stoxx index revisions. The high‑cap index edged up 0.08% while the mid‑cap index gained 1.40%.

Top performers were Elvalhalcor (+14.19%) and Viohalco (+9.11%), followed by Aktor, Lamda Development, EYDAP and OLP. The biggest decliners were ELPE (‑2.10%), Titan (‑1.48%), Eurobank (‑1.21%) and Jumbo (‑0.70%). Bally’s Intralot and CrediaBank recorded the highest trade volumes, and DEI and Eurobank accounted for the largest transaction values.

Investors remained risk‑averse after the postponement of U.S.–Iran negotiations on ending the Middle‑East conflict, contributing to the modest yet steady market rise.
