Pivovarna Lasko Drags Down SBI 20

Ljubljana, 12 December - Spooked by the announcement from investment firm Center Nalozbe that it will publish a bid for fellow investment firm Infond Holding, which holds a key stake in beverage group Pivovarna Lasko, investors rushed to sell shares of the latter on Wednesday. The 7% fall by Pivovarna Lasko dragged down the SBI benchmark index, which lost 23.24 points to 11,315.42, despite gains by the majority of the blue chips. The SBI TOP index was down 7.12 points at 2,498.34.
