stocks finished mostly in the red on Thursday (Nov 13) with the UX index falling
by 1.6% to a 9-month UAH-denominated low of 960 points even before the sharp
fall in the hryvnia is taken into account; it was the 9th consecutive session
loss for the benchmark. Among news impacting the local market was an
announcement that London-based trading company SteelMont has cancelled its
contract to deliver 1mn tonnes of South African coal to Ukraine aimed at
covering part of the 5mn-tonne thermal coal shortage in the country for the
winter season. The heaviest loss of 6.0% among blue chips was registered in
UkrNafta (UNAF). Motor Sich (MSICH) dropped by 3.4% to UAH 2059 while

sector, the two hardest-hit issues in recent days, Alchevsk Steel (ALMK) and
Yenakievo Steel (ENMZ) rebounded by 6.5% and 3.8% respectively on thin turnover.
