Russia partially resumed some stock trading on Thursday after a near month-long hiatus. On Friday, stocks fell on their second day of trading, with losses led by flag carrier Aeroflot.
Non-residents will still have to wait, though - they will be barred from selling stocks and OFZ rouble bonds until 1 April. A ban on short selling also remained.
