Greek Stocks Surge 0.84% on Wall Street Boost

Greek stocks rose on Wednesday, with the Athens Exchange general index closing at 2,031.51 points, up 0.84%. The rise was boosted by record highs on the stock market the previous day.

The large-cap FTSE-25 index expanded 0.88%, ending at 5,116.48 points. The banks index advanced 1.44%, with Eurobank leading gains at 3.51%. Motor Oil and GEK Terna were among the top gainers in the market, up 1.97% and 1.81% respectively. In total, 61 stocks gained, 38 lost, and 20 remained unchanged in trading.

In Nicosia, the general index of the Cyprus Stock Exchange increased 0.13% to 291.56 points. However, no specific information about the banks with the largest profit on Thursday in the Athens stock market was found.

Wednesday's trading saw a decrease in turnover to €199.3 million from Tuesday's €230.5 million. Despite this, the positive sentiment from international markets, particularly the record highs on the stock market, drove Greek stocks higher.
