The scenario outlined by Il Foglio on a consolidation of Italian banks passing from a large operation involving Unicredit, Mediobanca and Generali causes the stocks involved to be released on the stock exchange.
Mediobanca, which in the newspaper's hypotheses would be prey to Unicredit, soars and gains 4.5%.
Also rallying is Generali (+3.5%) of which Piazzetta Cuccia is the most important shareholder.
Unicredit, on the other hand, reports only a cautious increase (+0.64%).
The return of banking risk hypotheses also pushes BancoBpm (+3.5%) and with less conviction Mps (+1.7%) and Bper (+0.8%), which reduced their initial gains.
Popolarei Sondrio, on the other hand, is tonic (+2%).
