The ruble depreciates after oil. The cost of futures for oil of mark Brent with delivery in April 2016 on the ICE stock exchange in London has dropped by 0.82% to 32,61 USD per barrel, once again dropping below $ 33 per barrel.
The current situation does not give any significant signals on the strengthening of the Russian currency, any significant weakening, says expert “BCS Express” Ivan Kopeikin.
“But if you implement at least one possible positive: either OPEC will convene an emergency meeting in February, or the head of the U.S. Federal reserve will hint at a slower pace of monetary policy tightening, then the pair dollar/ruble may resume its decline with the first target in the area of 74.5 – 75 rubles”, – predicts expert.
