The PX-50 index closed unchanged at 421.6 points on Friday. Banking names lost some of their strength from last week as local investors decided to take profits ahead of the weekend. Komercni banka lost 0.77%, to CZK 1,289, and Ceska sporitelna closed down 1.71%, to CZK 327. Market volume amounted to USD 14.56 mil. For today, we believe the market is to go for a warm start, we don’t anticipate any substantial downturn.
