OREANDA-NEWS  On 19 November was announced, that on Tuesday, the PFTS index finding no support from the buyers continued its slow sliding down. The index was down 1.6% to 267 points, though the broader UFC index demonstrated more moderate decline by 0.1%.

Meanwhile, the sectoral indices had a completely different tendency – two in three indicators went up yesterday. While the UFC Engineering surge by 1.2% amid generally bearish market was not a surprise, the similar growth of the UFC Metals was quite unexpected. In its turn, the UFC Utilities was 1.1% down yesterday.

The PFTS index again is trying to consolidate below 275 points, yet we do not believe this level to be worked out to the end, since the current trade volumes in the market does not allow saying this trend is strong enough.
