Russia FX/Rates Snapshot - April 18, 2019

This morning, the greenback is strengthening across the board. The euro is down as a German manufacturing PMI remained well below 50 (44.5), indicating a continuing contraction in that segment of the economy. In addition, the Turkish lira has weakened by more than 1%, under pressure after it was reported that the CBRT is boosting its FX reserves with billions of dollars in short-term borrowing via FX swaps. That has led to fears about the country's ability to fend off a fresh lira crisis. If the lira continues to tumble today, pressure could be felt across other major EM currencies.
