This is the first time the local stock market has ever reached this threshold.
“Considering this year’s trend, it was to be expected that we would overshoot this mark, too. However, we are talking about doubling the capitalization in the last four years, which shows once again how important it is to invest long-term. Since our stock market still has development potential, we hope this is just a milestone, not a peak,” Antonio Oroian, Goldring broker, says.
Out of the RON500 billion, Erste accounts for some RON192 billion, while the rest is domestic capitalization – OMV Petrom, RON58.9 billion, Hidroelectrica, RON54.2 billion, Romgaz, RON37.4 billion, Banca Transilvania, RON31 billion.
