3. EXPECTATIONS
After the first part of January’s negative trend was blamed on the correlation with external markets, the recent decline is a result of the investor’s lack of trust in the Romanian economy. Last week, while the Stock exchange indexes dropped 4-6%, in Europe and America the main indexes went up 2-4%.
For the next period, the investors are waiting for the preliminary financial results for 2007, which are expected to help the market return to a positive trend.
