Kazakhstan and the world markets on October 7, 2010.

developments on the world stock, commodity and currency market:
- trading on major U.S. and European markets have ended differently.
Market participants, for most of the last trading session on the
background out of a package of controversial nature of news, trying to
determine the direction, and if the European markets up to the day
celebrating the victory of the bulls, the U.S. indices closed in different
directions. Of the positive news should celebrate the release of euro zone
GDP data, which in the second quarter grew by 1.9%, with analysts'
expectations of growth of only 1%. In addition, the volume of industrial
orders in Germany rose in August on 3,4% monthly terms, while the
specialists predicted that figure will grow by 0,9%. Pressure on the
markets have provided a message ADP, under which the number of jobs
in the private sector of the U.S. in September dropped by 39 thousand,
while the expected increase of 20 thousand and a decrease in long-term
ratings of Ireland's local and foreign currencies from "A +" to "AA-"
International rating agency Fitch. According to the director in the
sovereign group Fitch, Chris Price, "Reducing the rating reflects Ireland's
unprecedented, and exceeded the expectations of the financial costs of
the country relating to the recapitalization of the authorities of the Irish
banks, particularly Anglo Irish Bank. Negative outlook due to uncertainty
regarding the timing and scope of economic recovery and fiscal
consolidation measures medium term. "Up to the day the European sites
have added significantly to the capitalization, closing within 0.9%. The
Dow Jones rose 22.93 points, or 0.21%, to 10,968 points. The index of
wide market S & P 500 closed was down 0.78 points, or 0.07%, at around
1160 points, but the important point is to close the day above the mark of
1,150 points.
- Indices of sites emerging markets finished the past day trading mostly in
positive territory, playing a positive closure of the West on the eve of
sites. An additional powerful factor supporting acts dynamics of
commodity areas, in particular, oil quotes in the last ten sessions
demonstrate a very impressive growth. Premarket platforms for emerging
markets at a given moment are positive, as particularly evidenced by the
dynamics of the start of trading on the majority of Asian sites that have
reached new two-year highs.
- The cost of the contract for the supply of a barrel of WTI crude oil up to
the last session increased by 1.2%, setting the annual maximum at
around $ 83.5 per barrel. During the bidding took place and attempt to
take the turn at around $ 84, which resulted in a small correction of
quotations. Over the past ten sessions, the price of oil rose by more than
12.5%. Analysts of "REAL Invest.kz" believe that the short-term price of a
barrel of oil should be adjusted after such significant growth. "REAL
Invest.kz" sees no reason for a thorough overcome more than a year the
price range of $ 70-80 per barrel.
- The cost of ounce of gold in the first half of last session, carried out
several failed attempts to overcome an important psychological level of $
1,350, and when most players have already agreed to postpone the
resolution of this issue at least until the next trading session, quotes,
"precious metal" unexpectedly, an hour before the close of trading
reached a psychological level, finished the day at around $ 1 353.4 per
ounce. "REAL Invest.kz" repeatedly noted the apparent overbought
current price levels for gold, after prolonged growth; however, the cost of
ounce continues to grow well, as though paying no attention to the factors
of technical analysis. At the same time, analysts of "REAL Invest.kz"
believe that the correction, which sooner or later catch up "precious
metal" will be swift, which significantly increases the risk of entry is a
short-term position at current levels.
- two majors of the Forex market on the basis of the last trading session
even stronger closer to the most important psychological mark, located at
the level of 1.40 for the EUR/USD and at around 1.60 for the pair
GBP/USD. Moreover, if the British pound, "marking time" in one place
more than a week, the euro steadily continued its impressive campaign.
Determining the future prospects for both pairs, according to the "REAL
Invest.kz", should make the ECB and the Bank of England, scheduled for
the second half of the week.

production assets in Kazakhstan and confirms its intention to
