Comer shines on the stock market (+ 21%) after an acquisition

Closing down sharply for Piazza Affari, like the other main European markets. In Milan, the Ftse Mib stops trading, leaving 1.27% on the ground at 24,875 points. Concern about the spread of the Delta variant and a possible decrease in stimulus from global central banks, together with some mixed macro data, are holding back the markets. Sales are transversal to all sectors but weigh above all on stocks linked to the economic cycle, such as cements (Buzzi Unicem-2.70%) and industry (Ferrari -2.36% and Exor -2.30%) but Nexi’s payments also lost share (-2.54%); there were just three stocks up on the main basket: Terna (+ 0.15%), Diasorin (+ 0.40%) and Amplifon (+ 1.1%). Among the minor stocks, Comer jumped (+ 20.8%) after an acquisition in Germany.
