GDANSK (Reuters) – Polish stocks rallied on Monday after the ruling nationalists looked to have fallen short of a parliamentary majority in Sunday’s election, potentially opening the way for the opposition to form a government.

The WIG index rose 2.9%, while the blue-chip WIG20 was up 3.3%, led by banks.

The Warsaw WIG bank index jumped 5.7%.
