The rates on the shortest money have remained on very low points and KazPrime index demonstrates downward tendency. Probably, the growth of index of unsatisfied supply is connected with accumulated speculative interest for last days, when the main regulator with big supply entered the market. Probably, appreciation of national currency will also be observed tomorrow. [2008-05-20]
