External Factors Effecting the Russian Stock Market In July the dynamics of the Russian financial market was defined by the situation at the world financial market. The drop at the shares market and the decrease in indices value also are to be noted - they are the reflection of negative situation at the external markets, connected also with the sharp drop of share of two leading hypothecary agencies - Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, crisis situation in one of the biggest USA banks- IndyMac, as well as new assets write-off by the biggest financial institutions. Even positive news against the background of good financial results of the top-three USA banks did not change the situation to the better. Diversified dynamics was observed at the world goods market as a result of considerable fluctuations in oil prices, which set a new historical record of more than USD 146 per barrel in the first half of the month (more than USD 147during biddings). It was the increase in tension around Iran conducting its nuclear program that caused negative reaction of the USA and also contributed into prices for oil increase.
Sharp drop of prices for oil in the second half of the month was the result of demand decrease due to the slow-down of the USA economic growth, which once again demonstrated strong dependence of the market on the situation in the USA economy. All these factors resulted in the drop in the major world financial indices. Thus, in July there was a significant reduction in the majority of the world indices both as compared with the data at the beginning of 2008 and with the values at the end of June 2008. Whereas USA and European markets in July fell in general by 0.5-3%, markets in the developing countries were characterized by higher extent of drop - by 3-11%. The bearish trend was clearly seen against the background of the decrease in the main Russian stock indices, which reduced by more than 15% over June (see table 1 and fig. 6).
