Brokerage boom

Brokerage houses are opening new accounts at a record-breaking rate. Data presented by the five biggest brokerage houses show that their client numbers increased by two-and-a-half times last month, in comparison to five months ago. There are no signs that this trend is going to slow down in December. The number of transactions on the stock exchange is also soaring, reaching the record-breaking figure of 1.1 million in October.
