with a positive climate in other European markets and talk over

points, with turnover soaring to 176.421 million euros.
National Bank (5.41 pct), Mytilineos (4.98 pct), Alpha Bank (4.53 pct),

blue chip stocks. The Big Cap index jumped 3.12 pct, the Mid Cap index
ended 2.33 pct higher and the Small Cap index rose 2.49 pct.
The Food sector (-0.35 pct) was the only one to end lower, while Raw
Materials (5.04 pct) and Banks (4.44 pct) scored the biggest percentage
gains of the day.
Broadly, advancers led decliners by 141 to 31 with another 51 issues
unchanged. Cardico (11.76 pct), Centric (10.20 pct) and Ekter (10 pct)
