Reporting Alcoa will determine the trend of tomorrow's auction at the Russian sites

Wednesday, July 8th, 2009

Trading on Russian stock market on Wednesday held in a negative way, which mainly contributed to the situation in foreign markets, which also provoked a sharp decline of the domestic currency against the dollar. Opening, as expected, was to break down, resulting in the MICEX index hit on the level of support in the region of 900 points, followed by cannon, is a positive influence on the index futures added U.S. and cannon up quotations oil. Published macroeconomic statistics for the euro area GDP coincided with predictions: the data were positive for Germany, where industrial production grew by 3.7% with projections of growth on 0,5%. As a result, the MICEX reached a daily maximum, and then again adjusted.

Until the end of trading session, the dynamics will be quite volatile, so I recommend to stay away from the market until the release of oil and petroleum products in the United States. According to the American Petroleum Institute (API), the growth stocks of gasoline in the United States last week reached 767 thousand barrels to 212.4 million barrels, which would mean an increase of gasoline stocks the third week in succession and will be negatively perceived by investors. In the case of sharply - the negative statistics suggest a reduction of position, since the prospects for tomorrow's session is uncertain.

According to the intraday dynamics of futures for U.S. indices, and the nervousness is present on American sites, because of the expectation of reporting Alcoa, which should be published after the closing auction in the United States. It is projected that for the II quarter loss would be 0.38 cents per share, so even after the finish trading session in the States the situation could change dramatically. So the basic guide to start tomorrow will be futures on U.S. indices. From the perspective of tomorrow will be interesting traditional data applications for unemployment benefits, as well as data on wholesale inventories in the United States.

Technically, the MICEX index continues to move in short-term descending channel, formed in June 2009, the lower limit of which is in the region of 880 points, in the case of negative tomorrow could be a powerful support. The nearest resistance is a strong level of 960 points. Volumes in the current bid is lower than in recent trading sessions, demonstrating the benefit of speculators, as the main medium-term investors are already out there.

Shares of Russian oil and gas sector are falling. The reduction is defined primarily technical potential corrective movement down. Slightly better looking stock Lukoil, are consolidated in the region of 200-day moving for the past three trading sessions. Shares of Gazprom head the list of outsiders, rapidly decreases to a level of 200-lnevnoy sliding, located in the vicinity of 135 rubles., Which I recommend to build positions in the purchase. Support for the shares of Rosneft made a standard in the area of 38,2%-term correction of Fibonacci. For the majority of shares neftyanki not closed gepy that allows you to count on strong technical rebound, which may strengthen the positive statistics, however, recommend use it for speculative purposes.

Shares of banking sector in the absence of the ideas demonstrated obscherynochnuyu dynamics. Despite attractive rates for purchases, I recommend to stay away from the medium-term purchases of securities of banks. Speculators is to draw attention to the banks in anticipation of the season, reporting of financial structures, which will open next week at Goldman Sachs.

Combining the cellular assets of Svyazinvest and Vympelcom will create a telecommunications holding company with revenues exceeding $ 20 billion

Outlook

some recovery may occur after lunch. It is very important to have data on stocks of petroleum and petroleum products in the United States, which will be at 18:30. They will determine the further direction of movement of oil, which for the Russian market remains the number one factor. It should also draw attention to the G8 meeting in Italy, but events that may affect the markets, at a meeting likely will not.

From the technical point of view, the market closed yesterday near the level of support for 930 points on the MICEX index, which is in the morning was gone immediately. Another aim of becoming a standard of 880 points, but the market is trying to gain near 900 points. Given the strengthening of the negative sentiment in the market, lower activity and a decline in liquidity further downward movement and to achieve levels of 850-880 points seems quite plausible. Speculators, I recommend playing on purchases, because local market transaction, but the record profits as the market rebound. Medium-term investors recommend slowly build up positions on the pleadings, I recommend a long-term investors to hold the position.

Now the market trend is not clearly defined, the players in anticipation of macro-economic data from Europe and the United States

Wednesday, July 8th, 2009

Waiting for a miracle

Mid-week is marked by sales. America prior to bid opening to the negative sentiments in the same vein was the whole trading session. The reason - fear of the bidders kasaemo of company reports for the second quarter. Losses were as follows: Dow Jones -1,94%, SP 500 -1,97%, Nasdaq Composite -2,31%. In the Asia-Pacific indices behaved similarly - on average lost nearly per cent.

On such a background of external opening of Russian sites have passed under the sign of catch up with and ahead of fellow. Further, the market shares of those who started trading session substantially lower levels of the closure of the previous days, was the new bit, the one who opened the day with a mild negative gepa, began to decline. At the moment the situation as follows: Surgutneftegaz -3.12%. Rosneft -2.34% -2.30% VTB, Sberbank -2.23% -1.86% Gazprom, Lukoil -1.47%.

By noon the negative external background played, and now are waiting for news from outside, but today will be a lot of them: the statements of leaders of the Group of Eight, the results of meetings of the Bank of England, the macro-economic data from Europe and the United States. As we can see reasons for changing attitudes предостаточно, and bidding may be accompanied by high volatility. May trigger the growth of accounting for companies who were significantly better than forecasts, but the miracle is unlikely. Now the trend is not clearly defined. It remains to wait and have to act as it becomes available. Do not forget that we are tightly intertwined with the quotations of oil, while reducing them from collapse, nothing will keep us.
