In recent days, foreign investors of Gazprom say that they are ready to sell shares of a Russian gas monopolist at a low price. According to Izvestia , they also predict a possible drop in shares of the largest Russian company, if in the coming week there is no clarity in Gazprom. Investors were greatly alarmed by the lack of Miller at the last council and the fact that the meeting with the President’s plenipotentiaries, who was carefully prepared for a long time, was held by the first deputy Peter Rodionov instead.
This week, a meeting of the Board of Directors of Gazprom will be held on one of the most scandalous questions for the concern - further relations between the gas monopolist with the petrochemical company Sibur.
According to Izvestia, the head of Gazprom Alexei Miller, a chair under which is still quite swinging quite strongly, will recover and visit a meeting of the Council. However, the information comes contradictory. Referring to the opinion of a foreign expert, the newspaper writes that the possible "collapse of Gazprom shares" is tantamount to the retired government. "
Russian analysts are more calm. They recall that investors often amenable to "herd feeling", sell stocks, and then regret it. The gas analyst of the Troika -Dialog investment company Valery Nesterov recommends buying Gazprom shares: “The company put into operation the Zeaplyarny field, from the first of January the government promised to increase gas prices by almost 20% - this will bring Gazprom an additional $ 500 million.”
