External factors behind Russian stock market dynamics In October the Russian financial market dynamics, as a month earlier, was dependant on the situation in the world financial markets. Among the adverse global market conditions, affecting the Russian market, a sharp decline in the U.S., European and Asian stock market at the background of stronger disturbance in the global financial sector is worth noting. Adopted by the Government of Germany and a consortium of private banks plan on the largest German mortgage bank Hypo Real Estate Holdings AG recovery has also urged negative expectations of investors and provoked a collapse of major stock indexes in Europe. The deterioration of the situation was affected by the global crisis of liquidity and solvency deficit, the US negative macroeconomic statistics, the slowdown in the global economy, the continued significant decline in oil prices (at the end of the month the oill price has fallen below USD 60 per barrel), further strengthening of the USD position, the negative forecasts for emerging markets and reduced demand for commodities. Even approval of the US Congress the plan to support the financial sector by USD 700 billion and the presentation of Britain, France and Germany plans for financial support to the banking sector, as well as decrease of interest rates in early October by the central banks of the US, Europe (ECB), Britain, Canada, Sweden, Switzerland and China. Then South Korea, Hong Kong and Taiwan failed to provide the expected positive impact on the world markets, only confirming the fears of a deepening financial crisis.

All those factors resulted in sustainable trends of the major world stock indexes downfall. For example, in October, there was a significant decline in global indices, as compared with the level of early 2008 (by 20-80 per cent on average). A similar trend was observed in the indicators at the end of September 2008. Thus, the markets of developing countries were characterized by the decline of the major indexes by 15-40 per cent, the US and European markets - by 20-30 per cent. (See Table 1. and Fig. 5).
