Volume of concluded deals with USD_SPOT instrument, which is the maximum over the whole history of trades on KASE (more than $1.2 bn.) draws attention. Calculations on this instrument are made in a day and market's participants often use it for prolongation of open "long" position. At the same time, this fact may indirectly say on the growth of speculation component on domestic market on the side of nonresidents. At the same time, tomorrow we forecast no serious expansion of the price range due to regulation factor. [2008-12-09]
