Russia FX/Rates Snapshot - August 6, 2019

Ruble volatility has picked up significantly, which is part of a global trend. This is clearly a negative factor for the ruble and will hamper it from recovering back below 65 until the situation calms. The situation could start to improve this evening if St Louis Fed Governor James Bullard, a known dove, signals that the Fed is ready to cut further and is not merely monitoring the situation. We think this is the most likely scenario, but we note that if this doesn't happen, risk-off will likely be reignited and the ruble could fall along with other EM currencies.
