Russia FX/Rates Snapshot - November 8, 2018

This morning, the ruble has erased yesterday evening's losses, despite the fact that the dollar is stronger globally ahead of today's Fed decision. This FOMC meeting is not likely to deliver a change to the rate or significant amendments to the statement. Given the recent upbeat labor report, we expect the Fed to remain hawkish and hint at a rate hike in December, which is currently price by 80% of the market. Today, we expect the dollar to strengthen globally on a hawkish Fed, while the ruble should stay rather flat, which, with peer currencies declining against the dollar, marks an effective recovery for the local currency following the recent losses.
