OREANDA-NEWS. September 23, 2011. Concorde Capital released daily Ukrainian market view:

The local Ukrainian Exchange plummeted 4.07% on Thursday, as comments from the US Federal Reserve and worsening of the European debt crisis sent all major world indices south on Thursday.  (S&P 500 -3.19%, FTSE 100 -4.67%, WIG -6.05%, RTS -8.61%). Local market activity remained meager, with total turnover just barely topping USD 10 mln. Only one local blue chip advanced, Stirol (STIR UK, BUY) +0.68% to extend its streak to +5.46% over the last three sessions. All other index components closed lower, most by 4%-9%. All Ukrainian stocks in Poland also finished the day deep in the red, with the WIG-Ukraine index shedding 4.34%. The worst performers were Kernel (KER PW, N/R) -6.98% and Coal Energy (CLE PW, N/R) -5.73%.

US indexes took their hardest single-day hit in five weeks yesterday, amid widespread selling of stocks and commodities on escalated fears about the global economy. Asian stocks are now trading mostly down, but off early lows. US index futures are showing a slightly rise in the morning, helped a bit by a promise from G-20 to work together to solve Europe’s debt problems. The Russian stock market opened down around 2%. We are expecting to see another negative start at the opening of trading on Ukrainian stock exchanges this morning. There are no important macroeconomic statistics due to be released today. All attention will be focused on the annual meetings of IMF and World Bank, and the G-20 finance ministers’ summit which continues today.
