The WIG20 closed Thursday's session on November 12, 2026, at 4,279.50 points, up 1.69 percent from the previous session. The move came as Warsaw equities continued their recovery, although the late-day performance took place against a less supportive tone in US markets. The closing level and daily change were reported by Polish Press Agency.
Allegro provides the main support
Allegro was the strongest WIG20 component, rising 5.09 percent during the session. According to XYZ, the e-commerce group published third-quarter results ahead of the Thursday opening that exceeded analyst expectations and raised its 2026 forecasts. The company reported revenue of PLN 3.4 billion, adjusted EBITDA of PLN 1.1 billion and net income attributable to the parent company's shareholders of PLN 574.7 million for the quarter.
Allegro now expects Polish GMV to rise by about 13 percent in 2026 and group adjusted EBITDA to increase by 22 to 24 percent. The guidance update also reflected a new logistics agreement with InPost. The agreement runs through December 31, 2031, according to the same report. Other strong performers included PGE, Alior Bank, Orlen and Tauron.
Mining shares remain a drag
The session was not uniformly positive. KGHM fell 1.28 percent and Kruk declined 1.31 percent, making them the weakest WIG20 constituents alongside Budimex, Pekao and Zabka. The WIG-Mining sector lost 1.17 percent, while the WIG-Energy index gained 4.28 percent. The market backdrop therefore favored energy stocks and selected banks, but weakness in copper prices weighed on mining exposure.
Macro data moves into focus
Investors now turn to Friday's Polish data calendar. Preliminary third-quarter GDP figures and full October inflation data are scheduled for November 13, alongside balance-of-payments figures from the National Bank of Poland. These releases may provide a new test for the recovery in Polish large-cap equities after Thursday's broad-based advance.
