Rouble continues loosing ground in pairing with USD

With the start of the trading session at the MICEX currency section on Friday, the Russian Rouble rate continued weakening in pairing with the USD and EUR amid investors’ sentiment worsening at the world capital markets.

Thus, trading session for the USD started at the level of 32.02 roubles, which is 19 kopeks higher than yesterday’s closing level; the EUR started at the level of 43.45 roubles (+5 kopeks). 

Dual currency basket value amounted to 37.15 roubles today (+10 kopeks).

Thus another sentiment worsening puts pressure on the Russian Rouble rate.

Presumably, the pair Dollar/Rouble will be in the channel of 31.95-32.15 Roubles for the USD at the trading session on Friday.
