OREANDA-NEWS. August 13, 2010. UFC Capital released daily market view:

Equity market. After opening of trading on August 12, the UX Index hit almost 2030 points. Soon after, however, the indicator reflected investors' "bearish" mood, dropping below the 2000-point psychological barrier and continuing to decline, to below 1990 points. By close of trading, however, the index returned to the "green zone", closing at 2009.85, for a total rise of 0.07%.

Leading in trading volume for the day were Ukrsotsbank shares (USCB; UNDER REVIEW), ending the day with 300 transactions, totaling 10.6 million UAH. Over the course of the trading day, stocks fell 0.3%.

Mariupol Illich Iron and Steel (MMKI; RECOMMENDATION WITHDRAWN) led the market in bids for its stock, which gained in value by 20.1%. While 235 stock transactions were carried out, overall trading volume was low, for a value of just 506 thsd hryvnia. With an average price per MMKI share sold on Thursday of 2.2 thsd hryvnia, one should take a sober view of the rise in the share price, when dealing with such relatively small volumes.
