The situation is quite funny, this game is usually quickly ends with a sharp reversal. Take off the market was reinforced by the pension money, has also played its role as the influx of Western speculative investments. But this speculative inflows as quickly comes and goes, any negative message can topple Russia shares, and then the market will be the leaders in the fall, - he said the agency Interfax-AFI .

All of the maximum target for the correction of the fall in June and July of this year, haslong been achieved, the market is overbought, the risks of going wild . We need to fix profit, selling stocks and even think about opening short on many papers. Theoretically, turn can be very painful, the RTS index could easily slide into the area of 1000 points , - M. Young.

Such opinion of the managing company assets Pilgrim Asset Management Igor Kissel, who remarks that the rise of the market in recent days was required influx of Western capital since early October and closing short positions, the players who put on a downward correction.

Since October, celebrated the flow of money from Western foundations, which had preferred not to enter the market and wait for another wave of decline, but now have decided not to miss the chance to do something this year. Secondly, it triggered a technical factor, but namely the closure of shorts (the largest of their volume was observed in the Savings Bank and Subsidiaries'), which raised the market last Friday and Monday. The wave of purchases would subside in the afternoon, but appeared positive external background which has kept downward correction. In general, Considering the appetites of buyers in the next couple of days, the probability of a reversal of the market down less than the opportunity to see the stock price even higher, - he said.

Traders said

IR Uralsib Capital Valentina Yegorova, the stock market rose after Europe and the oil, which feed on talking about inflation rally amid expectations of further weakening of the dollar.

is also still a lot of asset managers who have nedoinvestiroval means and missed the rally of shares, and not waiting for the mythical correction. The market, of course, locally overheated, a correction can be lightning fast, but hardly very profound. The 10-15% of the market may prosest, but he still remains at a fairly high level. While looking up - he added.

Head of the stock control of the Moscow branch of the bank Vadim Smolensky Khloponin also notes that most players tend to purchase rather than to the correction.

Global investors' optimism, high saturation of the liquidity of credit institutions, as well as traditionally blessed for the domestic market factor - rising oil prices - these are the main reasons for the rally at domestic sites. Click to continue »
