At the same time, it made no significant impact on the total tendency of USD rate on domestic market; it went on growing. We don't exclude correction movement from the low limit at KZT120.50 per $1 next week. At the same time, intensified falling of prices on hydrocarbons and metals will support the downward trend of national currency rate. [2008-12-19]
