The market still demonstrates objective parity between demand and offer, which was today a bit higher than yesterday due to the demand of mainly middle banks. Most traditional sellers of USD do not change their positions and try to pull the market upward as highly as possible. However the existing demand, which is main speculative, does not let give market the sufficient impulse for going up.
So, the market has again demonstrated positional trades and unwillingness to go out of the side trend.
One hour after closing of the morning session out of stock exchange dollar was quoted at KZT130.15/23, one hour and a half later - 130.16/24. At the day trades of KASE at 12:40 p.m. dollar was quoted at 130.20/22, the last deal was made at 130.22.
