ZAGREB, 4 March (2022) - The main Zagreb Stock Exchange (ZSE) indices slumped again on Friday, after yesterday's brief recovery, thus increasing the loss on the week to about 4.5%, which is a consequence of the pressure of the Ukrainian crisis on the world stock market, as well as the domestic one.
The Crobex fell by 1.94% on Friday, to 1,946 points, its lowest level since August 2021. At the same time, the Crobex10 dropped by 1.86% to 1,176 points, its lowest level since April 2021.
All sector indices went down, and the construction index saw the biggest decline, of 2.87%.
Domestic indices thus followed the negative trends on European stock markets, which saw sharp declines, while investors follow the news on the war in Ukraine and assess the possible effects of that war on the world economy.
The Crobex indices also registered significant losses on the week for the third consecutive week. Compared with the beginning of the week, the Crobex fell by 4.69% and the Crobex10 by 4.5%.
