The main US stock indexes registered a moderate increase, which was promoted by the rise in price of shares in the consumer sector and conglomerate sector.
The focus was also on the United States. As shown by preliminary research results submitted by Thomson-Reuters and the Michigan Institute, a gauge of sentiment among US consumers fell in January despite the average predictions of experts. According to the data, in January the consumer sentiment index fell to 94.4 compared with the final reading for December 95.9. It was expected that the index will rise to the level of 97 points.
Quotes of oil moderately fell on Friday, as the rebound in oil production in the US outweighed the continued decline in crude oil reserves in the country.
