Lisbon Stock Exchange opens higher led by EDP gains
The Lisbon Stock Exchange opened higher on Wednesday, September 30, 2026, with the PSI index recording gains between 0.56% and 0.90% during the opening session.
Growth was largely driven by the energy sector, specifically EDP and EDP Renováveis, which saw increases of approximately 1.6% to 2.3%. Banco Comercial Português (BCP) also posted gains of 1.31%. In contrast, Galp Energia was a notable outlier, experiencing a decline of nearly 1%.
On a broader scale, European markets showed mixed results. While some indices like the German DAX and French CAC 40 showed movement, investor sentiment was influenced by rising inflation data in France and Italy, which exceeded previous expectations. This has led to increased speculation regarding potential interest rate adjustments by the European Central Bank.
