The PX-50 index gained a moderate 0.21% to 474,6 points on Friday in a light session. Unipetrol was the lone mover, rising 9,1% to CZK 34.70 after news surfaced that Agrofert might abandon its intention to acquire the company; the gain was based on speculative basis, however, as the reports have not been confirmed. Other names traded with no special interest. Today we expect another quiet session as there are no major domestic or international events foreseen that would drive the domestic market, and some major markets in Europe are closed due to national holidays. Total volume reached USD 14.7 mil.
