The general index may rise again to 3,505-point and 3,567-point levels, coinciding with the annual disclosures and the planned dividends, Technical analyst Gamal Abdul Hamid told Mubasher.
Technically, breaking above 3,494.63 points is not negative and helps to maintain 3,481-point level, Abdul Hamid added.
