The stated sum is 2.0% of monthly exchange turnover (in January 2005 - 2.9%).
In comparison with January of 2005 volume of transactions has grown by $61.3 m. (KZT8.0 bn.) or by 34.19% (by 34.18% in terms of tenge). Relative to February of 2004 volume of transactions has increased by $43.4 m. (KZT5.0 m.) or 1.6 times (1.5 times in terms of tenge).
Structure of CS turnover at KASE in February is presented in the following way: 100% of all conducted deals fell to the stake of purchase and sale sector. Structure of exchange's CS market in January of 2005 was as follows: the stake of primary offerings was 10.4% of transactions volume ($18,554.4 th.), purchase and sale sector - 89.6% ($160,653.8 th.).
SHARE MARKET
Volume of deals volume in this segment rose in February 1.8 times or by $16.5 m to the equivalent of $38.9 m. Number of shares involved into deals in January fell from 25 to 24, and number of deals grew from 162 to 250.
In analyzed period 34.4% of deals in shares in quantitative expression and 75.9% in volumetric expression were direct. Corresponding indicators of January - 51.9% and 83.3%.
Statistical characteristics of share market can be also described by parameters of market's concentration. 5% of total number of shares, which were included in KASE's trade lists as of the end of February 2005 (i.e. 4 shares - CCBN, ALKS, ASFI, VTBN), formed 51.9% of exchange's turnover. Similar indicator of January - 73.7%, December of the last year - 61.4%.
Among favorites there were common shares of Bank CenterCredit JSC (CCBN, 17.0% of share turnover, 20 deals) and common shares of Valyut- Tranzit-bank JSC (TBN, 10.7%, 16 deals). The "top-5" in February also comprised ALKS (12.5%), ASFI (11.6%) and UTMK (8.8%). To remind, in January 5 positions of the rating belonged to CCBN (27.9%), VTBN (21.8%), ALKS (16.8%), HRLT (7.2%) and KKGBp (5.7% of the whole share market).
On the number of executed deals, the indicator that adequately reflects security's liquidity, in February ASFI (83 deals) was the leader. It followed by KKGBp (40), CCBN (20), VTBN (16) and NFBN (15). In January first five positions of the rating comprised KKGBp (45), VTBN (27), CCBN (22), ALKS (11) and HRLT (10).
Within the month weighted average daily prices of 10 shares out of 24 ones involved into deals grew, prices of 12 fell, prices of 2 shares remained on the same level. BTAS showed the largest growth rate (34.7%), the most rapid fall was that of HSBK (99.4%). KASE_Shares index fell within the month by 0.6% due to negative change of demand prices of ASFI, K HSBK, KZTK, KZZN, KKGBp, ROSA, TEBN, VTBN and VTBNp.
In IRBIS analysts opinion ASFI was the most attractive equity investment this month. Trading in these shares involved a lot of disputes. Participants could witness the work of retail investors, boosting shares package by others and competition between brokers for the ownership rights. By day results ASFI sellers were unable to retain the share price at all-time-high level.
Most attractive share (in terms of a yield) was that in KZTK which appreciated as much as 24.4%. The most notable thing about that is that the majority of deals were market-executed enabling the shares to hit record high.
It is worth noting that during the last month a single deal on AMGZ and few in ROSA were executed. In doing so brokers followed well-known KKGBp scheme by demonstrating false market transactions at same price level taking advantage of mandatory quotation volumes for the market-maker.
CORPORATE BOND MARKET
Relative to January 2005 volume of deals has dipped by 49.0% per cent (by $77,752.1 th.) to $81.0 m. Range of securities involved into deals shrank tp 45 (48 - in January), number of deals has risen from 163 to 170. The stake of direct deals was 20.0% of transactions in quantitative expression and 16.6% in volumetric. In January - 11.0% and 13.9%.
5% of bonds, which were included in KASE's trade lists as of the end of February (4 securities - BTASb4, GBe2, ATFBb4, BTASb1), formed 52.5% of the exchange's turnover including primary offerings. Similar indicator of market's concentration in January was 51.8%, in December - 47.0%. In February 16 instruments had higher than USD1 m. turnover (in January - 25). BTASb4 were leading by the number of made deals (17 deals) followed by VTZLb1 (15 deals) and ATFBb4 (13).
In February weighted average daily prices of 45 securities out of 26 ones involved into deals grew, prices of 17 - fell. There was nothing to compare prices of 2 new bonds with. ALKSb2 and ALKSb2 grew most of all (by 17.2%), UKPFb1 fell most of all (by 5.5%). Weighted average daily dirty prices of 3 bonds grew by 5% and more, and prices of 2 securities fell so considerably. Yields of 25 bonds to maturity for a buyer grew in February, yields of 18 - fell.
Below are statistical and supplemental information characterizing the CS market at KASE in January of 2005.
Aforementioned data shows that the sector was experiencing some troubles in February. IRBIS analysts tend to explain so by partial outflow of pension assets in February to GS market (after MEUZhKAM-120 placement), as well as absence of primary floatations of corporate securities at KASE. Under the pressure of the last factor demand at secondary market rose to some extend leading to KASE_BY index fall and KASE_BC and KASE_BP indices rise.
The most attractive instrument was ALKSb2 which has been appreciating for a half and month. In general though, the corporate bond market looked weaker than equity market.
