Mytilineos

The Greek stock market took another step higher on Friday, closing at a new 13-year high for the second day in a row, as the local bourse appears close to shaking off the entire impact of the financial crisis that started in 2010 in Greece.

The Superfund plans to have received binding financial offers for the concession of Kalamata airport by the end of June, so as to complete the signing of the concession contract by the end of the year, to be ratified by the Parliament.

Unfazed by the decline of the banks index and the majority of stocks, the main index of the Greek stock market started the week with its eighth consecutive session of growth to register yet another 10-year high. A profit-taking move now appears long overdue. The daily trading volume was predictably reduced, given the holiday in the US.

Mytilineos Energy & Metals on Wednesday announced it has reached financial close with lenders BNP Paribas, Intesa San Paolo, Sumitomo Mitsubishi Banking Corporation, Rabobank and Santander Chile, on a 588 MWp non-recourse solar portfolio.

The chairman and chief executive of Athens-listed group Mytilineos, Evangelos Mytilineos, said he expects the company to increase its output to reach up to 4% of Greece's gross domestic product.

A universal move upwards for stocks in the Greek bourse on Monday led the benchmark to major gains and the daily turnover well above the 100-million-euro mark. The main index has now climbed to levels unseen since the end of last July, while investors are also looking forward to the listing of Athens International Airport that the government has decided.
