MOSCOW, Oct 13 (PRIME) -- The Russian stock market may slightly decrease at opening on Thursday on the lack of drivers, analysts said.
“The pressure on the Russian stocks may increase today, negative dynamics may restart as trade participants inclined to speculations will switch to profit taking on long positions, which were opened at the start of the week, and this will contribute to decline,” senior analyst at financial supermarket Banki.Ru Bogdan Zvarich said.
