ΣΤΑΤΙΣΤΙΚΑ: Η σημερινή συνεδρίαση ήταν η τελευταία της χρηματιστηριακής εβδομάδας, που αποδείχθηκε δεύτερη συνεχόμενη πτωτική για τον ΓΔ, με εβδομαδιαίες απώλειες 1,79%. Στο ίδιο διάστημα, ο ΔΤΡ υποχώρησε κατά 11,84%. Από την αρχή του χρόνου, ο πρώτος υποχωρεί 35,28% και ο δεύτερος κατά 69,18%.

ΜΑΝΟΣ ΧΑΤΖΗΔΑΚΗΣ: Η διαγραφή των τριών συστημικών τραπεζών και της Τιτάν καθώς και τα αποτελέσματα των εταιριών απασχόλησαν το ενδιαφέρον της εγχώριας επενδυτικής κοινότητας ξεφεύγοντας λίγο από την ειδησεογραφία του κορωνοιού.

  • Η καλή πορεία που παρατηρείται στην Ελλάδα αναφορικά με την εξέλιξη των κρουσμάτων της Πανδημίας έχει λειτουργήσει ανασταλτικά στις εισαγόμενες πιέσεις και τον περιορισμό της μεταβλητότητας σε σημαντικό αριθμό δεικτοβαρών μετοχών. Εξαίρεση σε αυτή την σχετικά αισιόδοξη εικόνα αποτελεί ο τραπεζικό κλάδος ο οποίος για δεύτερη φορά μετά το 2018 θα βρεθεί χωρίς εκπρόσωπο στο δείκτη αναφοράς της Morgan Stanley.

Η εξέλιξη αυτή οδήγησε σε ακραία μεταβλητότητα -όπως ακριβώς είχε γίνει και το Νοέμβριο του 2018- καθώς το μέγεθος των εκροών σε σχέση με τα συναλλακτικά δεδομένα της Αγοράς δεν μπορεί να χαρακτηριστεί αμελητέο.

  • Παρόλα αυτά επειδή οι Αγορές τείνουν σε κάθε επανάληψη ενός «ειδικού» φαινομένου να προεξοφλούν πιο γρήγορα τις εξελίξεις φαίνεται να έχει υπάρξει σε δεύτερο χρόνο αναχαίτιση της προσφοράς, ίσως όχι στο βαθμό που να μπορεί να θεωρηθεί ότι έχει κλειδώσει η αναδιάρθρωση με προσυμφωνημένες συναλλαγές αλλά πάντως σε μια κλίμακα που να θεωρείται ελεγχόμενη για τις εμπλεκόμενες μετοχές.

Το συμπέρασμα αυτό προκύπτει κυρίως από την συνεδρίαση της Πέμπτης και όχι τόσο από την ανοδική αντίδραση της Παρασκευής. Υπολείπονται ακόμα 10 συνεδριάσεις για την ολοκλήρωση των αναδιαρθρώσεων οι οποίες θα συνεχίσουν να έχουν βαρύνουσα σημασία στην διαμόρφωση του κλίματος.

ΣΥΝΕΧΙΖΕΤΑΙ η νωχελική τερματική εικόνα στο Χ.Α, με τις μικρές αυξομειώσεις σε γδ και τις ακραίες πανάθλιες παραστάσεις του terminator κλάδου και δείκτη του ελληνικού επενδυτικού λόμπι που οδηγήθηκε αυτοβούλως στην σφαγή για μία τουλάχιστον 10ετία.

  • Η ζημιά που προξένησε στην αγορά είναι ανυπολόγιστη και μη θεραπεύσιμη στον αιώνα τον άπαντα. Τα δεκάδες δισεκατομμύρια κεφαλαίων των ελλήνων επενδυτών εξαφανίστηκαν στην απέραντη χοάνη του και δεν πρόκειται να ξαναγυρίσουν.

Τώρα, αν μερικοί traders και μεσοπρόθεσμοι επενδυτές καταφέρουν να βγουν κερδισμένοι προσεχώς θα είναι απλά μία σταγόνα ικανοποίησης στον ωκεανό της απόλυτης καταστροφής. Μίας καταστροφής, που όμοια της δεν έχει υπάρξει στην παγκόσμια χρηματιστηριακή ιστορία και που ούτε πρόκειται να ξαναϋπάρξει.

Στα 53 εκατ. ευρώ η αξία των σημερινών συναλλαγών, εκ των οποίων τα 27,5 εκατ. (λίγο πάνω από το 50%) πραγματοποιήθηκε από μόλις 3 τίτλους (ΟΤΕ με 11 εκατ., ΕΥΡΩΒ 9,1 και ΕΤΕ 7,4 εκατ. ευρώ).

ΞΕΧΩΡΙΣΑΝ οι μετοχές των ΑΡΑΙΓ με άνοδο 5,73% (εδώ έχει πέσει το βάρος του ομίλου για ευκόλως εννοούμενους λόγους, ενώ στην άλλη, την ΟΤΟΕΛ δηλ., δεν δίνουν την παραμικρή σημασία γιατί ξέρουν τι ακριβώς κρατάνε στα χέρια τους…), ΚΟΥΕΣ στο +4% με 460 χιλ. τζίρο, και φυσικά πάνω από όλα η ΓΕΚΤΕΡΝΑ με τζίρους 1,4 εκατ.ευρώ, άνοδο 3,90% στα 6,1300 ευρώ…

A moderate bounce is the scenario of the day while MSCI expected outflows will keep volatility in credit sector.

Agenda: May futures expiration; IPTO FY:19 Conference Call

Macros 

Greece/Economy: Greek Prime Minister Mitsotakis said his government’s planning envisions a tourism season for the eastern Mediterranean country beginning on July 1, as coronavirus restrictions – both in Greece and the rest of Europe – are gradually being lifted. The biggest concern in Greece in the post-lockdown period is how and to what extent the all-important summer holiday season will be salvaged, as tourism and travel comprise an imperative portion of the economy. Speaking to some 500 executives and analysts via teleconference, Mitsotakis said the challenge for the tourism sector in Greece during the current, pandemic-battered year, is to acquire a bigger share of a much smaller “market pie”. He also promised that a privatization program will continue unabated, while pointing to a need for an acceleration of investment in a “green economy”.

Aegean Air: Greece’s largest carrier Aegean Airlines said on Thursday it will gradually restart flights from Athens to some major European destinations by the end of May, ending a suspension prompted by the new coronavirus pandemic.

The carrier said it will restart operations from its Athens hub to Munich, Zurich, Frankfurt and Geneva, initially with a reduced timetable. It will also add more flights to Brussels – the only international destination that had not been suspended during the lockdown period. Additionally, Aegean will increase flights in its domestic network from May 18-25, adding capacity to destinations including Iraklio and Hania in Crete, Thessaloniki, Alexandroupoli and the islands of Rhodes, Corfu, Lesvos, Chios and Samos. “Aegean is willing to gradually and with extreme cautiousness restore its network while fully respecting the tremendous national effort to control the Covid-19 outbreak within the country,” the carrier said. In preparation for the resumption of flights, Aegean said it has already stepped up precautionary measures, including the mandatory use of masks during flights and aircraft cleaning and disinfection procedures.
