/IRBIS, Jan.24, 00/ - According to REUTERS, at closing of the interbank currency market of Kazakhstan on January 21 tenge quotations towards US dollar equaled 139.43/47 tenge per dollar. Compared to the results of the previous day tenge decreased by 3 point against US dollar on demand and by 2 points on supply. In main (morning) session weighted average rate of the dollar with TOD terms equaled 139.45 (0) tenge per dollar and closing quotations of 139.45/46. The dollar quotations at closing of the additional day session under the TOD accounts (3:00 p.m. Almaty time) have made 139.40/45 tenge for dollar. Dollar on evening trades by accounts TOM and SPT was not quoted. There were no essential changes in the dollar quotations today. Some growth of the dollar price by 4:00 Almaty time could be explained by the traders speculative game in the interbank market. That was confirmed by differently directed movement of the dollar quotations during the last exchange market hour. The spreads remained narrow within a day, varied from 1 to 5 points. The activity in the currency circulation sector today was minimum both on exchange trades and in the interbank market. The banks assume an wait- and-see attitude. Considering the given situation, it is hardly probable to expect any essential changes on the Tuesday's session. Tenge has more chances to somewhat become stronger than to lose some points.
