As well as yesterday USD dollar market of Kazakhstan was characterized by increased volatility. In the first half of the day the significantly increased dollar offer volume at the main KASE session caused market's falling to 154.32- 154.33. At day demand of one bank, which specialize in importers servicing, allowed sellers by closing of the additional stock exchange's trade to lead the market to 154.41. The day out of stock exchange closed at KZT154.40 for dollar - precisely on the level, which was forecasted by IRBIS specialists yesterday as the most well-grounded in the current conjuncture.

A certain influence upon forming of USD rate was made by high "overnight" rates, which reflected increased interest of some banks in tenge. By the end of the day cost of the shortest money tended to decreasing.

Results of the conducted analysis allow IRBIS specialists to assume that the market in the nearest future, most likely, will become stable on the reached level, and by the end of the month it will gravitate towards growing due to importers' demand and decrease of USD offer volume.
