Three equities pull MSE Equity Price Index lower
Following last week's article detailing the performance of the S&P 500 index in 2025, it is worth devoting time to review the developments across the European equity markers in my last article of the year.
The MSE Equity Price Index fell by 0.2% to 4,073.0 points as the declines in BOV, Lombard, and PG outweighed the gain in FIMBank. Meanwhile, six equities closed unchanged as today’s total trading activity amounted to €0.19 million. Download today’s Equity Market Summary.
