Russia FX/Rates Snapshot - December 13, 2021. Ruble Awaiting New Triggers

On Friday, the ruble firmed to its strongest level in nearly a month, reaching USD/RUB 73.3. Supporting it were expectations of an improvement in the geopolitical situation and a moderate weakening of the dollar after the US CPI printed in line with expectations. Today, the ruble has weakened slightly to 73.5 amid a sharp strengthening of the US dollar and downturn in EM currencies. We expect the ruble to remain near current levels given that new catalysts have not yet emerged. Such a catalyst could come if talks between Russia and NATO are announced.
