The PX-50 index closed down 0.19% on Thursday, to 418.40 points. Local investors remain the main source of liquidity. Cesky Telecom was the most actively traded stock, closing down 2.51% to 354.40. Other names continue to trade lightly, with Unipetrol the only stock posting above-average volumes of late (more than 1.1 mil. shares yesterday). Total volume reached USD 8.49 mil. on Thursday. For today, we expect the market to continue in a quiet mood as US markets still do not send out clear signals to investors. Please note that the Czech market is closed on Tuesday, May 1, due to a public holiday.
