quotes of many blue chips have been located near the end of March. It is better Others are traded by consumer representatives, fertilizer manufacturers, as well as companies producing non -ferrous and precious metals. The outsiders were shares of Sberbank, Lukoil, Yandex, Alrosa and some others. The decline is due to the influence of several factors.
