The Russian stock market opened the main session with a decline. At 9:00 GMT, the Moscow Stock Exchange (IMOEX) lost 0.12% compared to the close of Wednesday's main session, to 2523.54 points. On Wednesday, the Moscow Stock Exchange index ended trading lower in morning growth, during which it was briefly noted at its highest level since June. At the beginning of the meeting, the support for oil prices and the reports of a possible renewal of negotiations on Ukraine were given. However, in the afternoon, buyer activity eased and the rally was replaced by profit-repairing. The nature of past offers suggests the possibility of consolidation, but not large-scale sales. At the same time, a stronger external factor is probably necessary to continue growth, analysts of the investment bank Sinara believe. Data: TradingView.
