An international brokerage continued to aggressively purchase CEZ on Thursday, and the stock finished up 3.54% at CZK 110.22. Overall optimism was also apparent in Ceske Radio after the government officially invited bids for its 51% stake in the company. Buyers were indeed on the market but the overall mood was rather speculative. Banking stocks saw little trading. Total volume yesterday was better than in previous days at USD 17.4 mil. The PX50 index was up 1.65%.
