The Czech market slumped 0.33% yesterday, dragged down by falls in Erste and CEZ on volumes which were well below the year-to-date average. Erste declined 1.64% as the stock was actively offered, particularly in Vienna. CEZ dropped 0.78% from the all-time highs it reached in recent days amid profit taking. Komercni banka finished in positive territory, bid by foreign investors. The most traded stock was Unipetrol again, being bought by both locals and foreigners and adding 1.2%. CME ended 0.3% up, gaining for a 3rd day in a row, partly due to Patria's upgrade of its target price to USD 55 from USD 53 on Friday.
