Mixed Results: Helsinki Stock Exchange Reports Higher Earnings For Some, Lower Performance for Others

On Thursday, the Helsinki Stock Exchange was buzzing with activity as numerous listed companies released their earnings reports. Despite this, Neste’s shares dropped by almost 8 percent, making them one of the biggest losers on the day. Kesko’s B-series shares also experienced a significant decline of almost six percent, while Kempower’s shares were down more than six percent.

The reason behind these price drops was attributed to worse-than-expected earnings announcements. However, amidst all this negativity, there were some positive outcomes as well. Construction company SRV saw its share prices rise by more than 5 percent after reporting better-than-expected results. Forest giants UPM and Stora Enso also experienced strong growth, with their shares increasing by well over 4 percent.

Despite the general index falling by 0.9 percent by midday, investors and traders remained closely monitoring the various companies and their earnings announcements throughout the day. Overall, it was a minor success for the Helsinki Stock Exchange on Thursday, but there were still some bright spots amidst the challenges.
