The PSI 20 closed at 9,420.43 points on October 6, 2026, up 0.71 percent, recovering after three consecutive declines. Jornal Economico said the advance followed a broader European recovery as oil prices and sovereign bond yields eased.
Drivers of the day
The move was led by utilities, financials and basic materials. Investing.com reported that EDP Renovaveis rose 1.78 percent to 12.55, while Banco Comercial Portugues gained 1.75 percent to 1.19. Ibersol added 1.33 percent.
Lower energy costs also helped the market backdrop. Brent crude fell to 99.15 USD and WTI declined to 88.73 USD, while Portugal's 10-year yield fell 6.13 basis points to 3.94 percent, according to Jornal Economico. The German 10-year yield fell 1.55 basis points to 3.48 percent.

Galp Energia was the main decliner, falling 0.95 percent as oil prices corrected. Mota-Engil and NOS also ended lower. Advancers outnumbered decliners 18 to 6, with five stocks unchanged.
