rynekelektryczny.pl, 13.08.2018
The Electricity Market index fell in August by only 1.1 percent, but it was largely due to the largest player, Apator, whose rate gained as much as 26 percent. thanks results for the first half of the year. The quotations of the majority of other companies have decreased, because - as other small and medium-sized ones - the trends in inflows and outflows to investment funds are determined on our market.

What is worse, hundreds of millions of zlotys are withdrawn from funds at an absolute rate every month.

Why is it so bad, though it could be so good?
rynekelektryczny.pl, 05.07.2018
There is a certain phenomenon that in the year when Polish economy reached a sky-rocketing 5% rate of development, and the previous year ended with a slightly lower GDP growth rate of 4.6%, the results of growth in many companies is missing or at least not he has enough to be able to share them with shareholders. From over 20 companies of the electric sector listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange, only eight have decided to pay the dividend for 2017. A year ago, there were 11 such companies. Even those companies that regularly, for many years eagerly shared money with shareholders were forced to take a break.

The industry's difficult year just passed
Rynek Elektryczny, page 24, 31.03.2018
In the year in which the Polish economy grew at a rate of 4.6 percent we could expect a significant improvement in the financial results of companies. Unfortunately, domestic GDP rather directed consumer spending, and not investments, which in particular in construction and power industry began to wake up (and yet quite sluggishly) only at the very end of the year.

Fragile stabilization at Warsaw Stock Exchange
Rynek Elektryczny, page 7, 28.02.2018
In February, the listing of the Electricity Market Index, reflecting the share prices of companies in the industry, fell by 0.5 percent. This is almost nothing compared to the discount that affected the entire market - WIG lost 6.6 percent. However, the divergence should not be surprising, because earlier in the second months the market grew like a yeast, and the electrical industry was in reverse (see chart). The stock market was damaged by the volatility jump at the turn of January and February, and the improvement in moods that followed this was not permanent. The ongoing season of financial results of companies for the fourth quarter also did not turn out to be an impulse to rebound. Concerns are growing that industrial companies will not be able to pass on the costs of salary and raw material growth to recipients. It strangles courses, especially for small and medium companies.
Shares have stopped falling
rynekelektryczny.pl, 23.02.2018
In January, the Electricity Market Index, reflecting the quotations of companies in the industry, first clearly rebounded and dropped in the second part of the month. The balance went almost zero, and a similar result was seen after three weeks of February. After almost ten months of decline, such a fragile stabilization is worth appreciating, especially since in the beginning of February there was a shock on stock exchanges in the world, which shook investors' confidence in continuing the boom. WIG since the beginning of February has been cheaper by more than 5 percent, because players in the United States after good macroeconomic data decided that interest rates will grow faster than expected. In one session the index collapsed like a house of cards, but fortunately the situation was quickly overcome.
The sale on the stock exchange has been stopped
rynekelektryczny.pl, 06.02.2018
The first three weeks of January 2018 ended with the increase in the Electricity Market Index, reflecting the quotations of companies in the industry, by 6.6%. So, it was the first month since August 2017 that there was an upward month for shares, which was a consequence of the improvement of moods around small companies. In December, small and medium-sized companies 'funds recorded the first positive balance of customers' capital inflows in the past months, who apparently believed that after a worse period enterprises would be recycled once they stabilized their finances after employee increases and found themselves in a stronger PLN. And they will see an increase in investment expenditures in the economy.
