Trading volume on the commodity exchange increased significantly

An analysis of the trading results at the Uzbekistan Republican Commodity Exchange for late March and early April of this year was conducted. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

According to the report, a significant increase in the number of transactions and total trading volume was observed on the exchange platforms. A total of 50,560 transactions were registered during the reporting period, representing an increase of more than 11% compared to the previous week's figures.

Despite the increase in total trading volume, a decrease in prices was recorded for certain strategically important product groups. The number of transactions carried out through open exchange trading amounted to nearly 24,000.

The bulk of these trades involved flour and polyethylene products. Specifically, more than 18,000 tons of flour products were sold through the exchange during the week.

According to the trading results, the average price for a ton of flour decreased from 3,909,000 soums to 3,855,000 soums. This situation indicates the stabilization of prices for essential consumer goods in the domestic market.

A downward price trend was also observed in the polyethylene market. More than 3,000 tons of polyethylene products offered for exchange trading were sold in full.

The average price per ton of this product dropped from 16 million soums to 15,885,000 soums. According to experts, such a price reduction creates favorable opportunities for entrepreneurs purchasing raw materials for production needs.

These changes in exchange trading demonstrate the stability of the country's economy and the effective functioning of market mechanisms.
