Practically all trade participants of KASE morning session operated as net- buyers. At that, changing of USD/KZT rate was insignificant and was restrained by high supply monopolization level. We highly evaluate possibility of USD rate growth on a day session. However, current regulating influence will contribute to unexpressed trend character. The dollar was quoted at 120.22/26 at the KASE day session at 12:18 p.m.; the last deal was concluded at 120.26. The dollar was quoted at 120.21/27 on over-the-counter. [2008-07-11]
