MOSCOW, Apr 26 (PRIME) -- Russian stocks may grow at the opening on Thursday backed by improvement of moods on the oil market and positive foreign background, analysts said.

The nearest support levels will be 2,250 and 2,240 points, while 2,270 and 2,280 points will act as resistance, he added.
The MOEX Russia Index can further grow to 2,270–2,280 points later in the day, he said.
