The paper presents an analysis of the stocks traded on MICEX from 2007 to 2011. In order to analyze the data, we construct a market graph model. The vertices of the graph represent stocks; the edges represent strong similarity between considered stocks returns. We suggest using the following way to calculate the similarity measure: we calculate the number of the periods when two considered stocks have the positive return simultaneously. Our results show that the market graph model with the suggested similarity measure can be used to describe the stock market dynamics in an effi-cient and concise manner.
