With the Athens Stock Exchange preparing to say goodbye to a “red” August, during which the General Index lost at least 3% – 3.5%, it is reasonable for several listed companies to see their share prices take the… descending, correcting from July highs.

However, there are also some – counted on the fingers of the hands – companies of the High and Mid Caps, which managed to surprise, withstand the wider downward pressures and bid farewell to the 8th month of the year on positive ground.

Which blue chips stood out?

In blue chips, specifically, its stock Elektor is preparing to record profits of 2.6% in August, regaining the 2 euro milestone as well as the 700 million euro mark in terms of stock market valuation. And this, in fact, despite the fact that on August 5, i.e. the day of the big sell off, it “plunged” to 1.8 euros and the lows of 10 months.

At the same time, its stock Cenergy heading for a marginally profitable month (+0.4%), putting up great “defences” against generalized domestic market pressures and reaching all-time highs of €10.06 on August 20, which it would have held but for the news for the possible AMK.

The durability of its stock is also a reference value Terna Energywhich loses just 0.5% in the last 30 calendar days, not being significantly affected by the broader climate of liquidations in A.A. After all, investors are taking refuge in the upcoming developments for the transfer of the majority stake and the public offering of the new main shareholder.

The “mediums” that endured

In terms of mid-cap, its stock Kri – Kri, despite the cut of this year’s dividend, is expected to say goodbye to August with a return of +5%, having climbed during the month to the historical record of 12.3 euros.

For her part, her stock Dimandcontinuing the path of recovery from the lows of June (8.09 euros), climbs by +5.2% in the last summer month, temporarily even reaching 9.9 euros.

H Optima Bankthanks to the last week’s counterattack, is back in the €12.7 range, up 3.7% in August and only slightly (-3.7%) away from recent all-time highs of €13.
