Monday’s trading was tempered by expectations of the 6M results of several major blue chips: Cesky telecom, Komercni and CEZ. However, only CEZ was volatile, trading in a range of 112.10-115.60. Ceske radiokomunikace (CR) came under selling pressure in morning trading, but recovered after the NPF announced that there were six bidders for the majority stake in CR; the stock closed at CZK 1,741 after an intra-day low of CZK 1,709. Investors began taking profits in Unipetrol, though not in big size. The stock weakened 2.20%. Volume stood at USD 16.65 mil.
