PolandPoland's WIG20 stock market index reached a historic high on Monday, surpassing its previous record from October 2007. The index has risen nearly 25% since the beginning of 2026, outperforming other European indices like the Dutch AEX and Sweden’s OMX Stockholm. This growth follows a recovery that began in October 2022, during which the index nearly tripled in value. Analysts attribute the performance to strong economic growth, increased consumer spending, and expectations of further EU investments. Major contributors to the rise include PGE, Poland's largest power producer, and KGHM, a leading mining company. The improvement in global risk appetite, partly due to reduced tensions in the Middle East, has also supported the market. However, analysts caution that the pace of growth may slow down after such significant gains.
