Russian stocks in green at MICEX

Today's trade on the Russian stock market began with the majority of securities rising. During the very first minutes, most "blue chips" added some 0.5 percent on the MICEX. MTS gained 8 percent, which was the way the market reacted to the rapid upsurge of the company's ADRs in New York last night. Russian securities mainly went up against the background of a boom that US stock indices had performed last night. Investors will pay the most attention to RAO UES and Sibneft today.
