The PX-50 index gained 0.32% to 406.4 on Friday. CEZ strengthened, owing domestic demand, adding 2.88% to CZK 79.90. Cesky Telecom led the losers, closing down 1.0% to CZK 316.30. Total volume was light with no major foreign participation, at USD 9.32 mil. For today, we are likely to open on a positive note, though we expect light volumes as Mondays generally are quiet sessions.
