Russia FX/Rates Snapshot - February 11, 2019

Moody's upgraded Russia from Ba1 to Baa3 on Friday, saying that the country's vulnerability to external factors such as oil prices and sanctions had "materially diminished" and "no longer constrains the rating to sub-investment grade." We believe that the decision was mostly priced in Friday evening, at least when it comes to the ruble. Trade talks between China and the US resume today in Beijing at a lower level, with US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer scheduled to join on Thursday and Friday. It is unclear whether the parties will be able to reach an agreement before March 1, when the 90-day trade truce is set to expire.
