Friday, the last trading day before the Easter weekend, was not as calm as expected in Prague. There was sustained interest from local funds in Cesky Telecom, whose intraday high touched the psychologically important level of CZK 400. The stock eventually closed up 4.49%, at CZK 395.5. Other SPAD stocks posted gains of 1–2%. Total market trading volume was USD 7.3 mil. Cesky Telecom was again the most active stock on the market, accounting for more than 60% of the volume traded Friday.
