The first half of today's session is the search for growth and the correlation with the environment, where the German DAX recorded slight increases. And that has happened to publication of the information given by the Ministry of Energy that in the shareholding of PKN Orlen (WSE: PKN) appeared PERN Company, with the participation of 4.9 percent in the PKN shares. PERN SA is the sole shareholder of the Treasury, thereby PKN Orlen has become less private. Investors reacted to that info by sell-off of PKN shares which affected the quotations of the WIG20 index.

At the halfway point of the session WIG20 index was at the level of 2,008 points (-0.33%).
