MOSCOW. May 22 (Interfax) - The Russian stock market corrected upward on Wednesday morning as investors closed some of their short positions, but the rebound looks uncertain amid mixed signals from external stock exchanges and declining oil (Brent dropped below $82 per barrel). The Moscow Exchange index rose above 3,440 points, led by previously oversold shares of Gazprom (MOEX: GAZP), while shares of Rusal (MOEX: RUAL) and Norilsk Nickel (MOEX: GMKN) fell in price in anticipation of dividend news from mining and metallurgy companies.
