Russia FX/Rates Snapshot - September 18, 2018

This morning, the ruble has strengthened by 0.4% versus the dollar, while EM currencies are mostly flat. The local currency may be able to advance further in the absence of bad news, supported by the halt to the CBR's FX purchases on behalf of the Finance Ministry in the open market. Still, China could respond to the US tariffs today (earlier, it promised tariffs on $60 bln in annual imports from the US as well as some other measures that could include restrictions on US companies doing business in China). If harsh measures are announced, this would pressure EM currencies, including the ruble.
