On the threshold of the final hours of the session, the Warsaw market takes on greater distance to the core markets and the WIG20 index is unresponsive to attempts to increases in the US and Germany.

The morning phase of trading on the Warsaw Stock Exchange did not bring new content. The market is still focused on the shares of Pekao (more than half of the turnover among the WIG20 companies).
