Russia FX/Rates Snapshot - January 15, 2020

There have been reports that China could increase its purchases of US goods and services by $100 bln per year as part of today's trade deal. If these reports are confirmed (even if the volumes are more modest) and concrete details are announced, the trade pact would likely be taken positively, as it would open the path for tariff reductions in the medium term. We thus believe that the signing of the deal will be supportive for global markets. Against this backdrop, the ruble could firm to 61 in the evening. Moreover, it should be supported throughout the day by what we expect to be strong foreign demand for OFZs at the Finance Ministry's first auction this year.
