During morning trade session USD rate fell lower than 119.50, what admits our consolidation forecasts within 119.0 - 119.50 in short-term prospect. The rate didn't manage to retain significant volume of demand on yesterday's level of one of commercial banks, which was leveled by regulating factor. We expect continuation of KZT/USD appreciating during supplementary session. The dollar was quoted at 119.62/119.65 at the KASE day session at 12:23 p.m.; last deal was concluded at 119.65. The dollar was quoted at 119.57/119.61 on over-the-counter. [2008-08-29]
