flat fizz

English to Chinese Bus/Financial Investment / Securities
UNFORTUNATELY for investors into eastern Europe, last year was the year to be invested. Driven by accession to the European Union, markets rocketed by as much as 110 per cent in the case of Slovakia. Investors rushed to exploit convergence plays, and local currencies appreciated on the back of massive capital inflows of Western cash.
However, last year’s party has resulted in much flat fizz for 2005. “There is not much more room for multiple [-digit] expansion,” says Agne Zitkute, an investment manager at Pictet Asset Management. “All we are hoping for is earnings growth to drive performance.”
