Russian stocks are approaching $1 trillion in value, an emerging-market record, mostly because of the country's oil and gas industry. The Russian Trading System Index [RTSI] has surged 88 percent over the past 12 months. Russia's market capitalization on Aug. 16 reached a record $946.2 billion, 15 percent larger than South Korea, the next biggest emerging market, at its peak in May, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
