The Portuguese stock exchange started the last session of the week in negative territory, with the PSI index recording a decline. This drop was influenced by the pressure exerted by two of the main listed groups in Lisbon.
The EDP group was one of the main contributors to the negative pressure on the PSI. Millennium BCP also contributed to the downward trend of the Portuguese index during this session.
Conversely, Jerónimo Martins managed to gain value, which helped limit the overall losses of the index. The food retailer is one of the heavyweights of the PSI and its gains partially offset the negative impact of EDP and BCP.
This movement occurred in the last session of the trading week, on a day when the Portuguese market was following the trend of other European markets.
