What should an investor keep an eye on this week

The stock market was under pressure last week amid geopolitical risks and news about budget changes, analysts at FG Finam said. The correction was moderate, so in the future, Russian securities may begin a cautious upward movement and a general recovery.

On Monday, September 29, the developer Etalon will hold an extraordinary meeting of shareholders on the issue of additional placement of shares, Gazprombank Investments reported. This event may put pressure on the company's securities. On the same day, Gazprom Neft oil company will convene shareholders to approve dividends for the first half of 2025, Finam noted. This event may have a positive impact on the company's share price.

On September 30, the transport operator Eurotrans and the gold mining company Polyus will make decisions on dividends, indicated in the Digital Broker. This is the last day for the purchase of shares of the chemical manufacturer PhosAgro with dividends for the first half of the year, Finam added.

On Wednesday, October 1, the Moscow Stock Exchange will publish data on trading volume for September, according to the Digital Broker. This may affect the Moscow Exchange Index and the state of the entire financial market of the Russian Federation. Rosstat will also present weekly statistics on the consumer price index — the event will affect investors' expectations of further dynamics of the key rate.
