Russian Ruble - Higher Inflation data to trigger RUBLE Buying
Fundamentals
Today's Russian inflation data could increase market bets of an interest rate hike by the Russian central bank in August.
Against low-interest-rate yielding currencies like the U.S Dollar and Euro, we could see a stronger Ruble as long as the risk of U.S sanctions on Russia does not persist.
Key Points:
Russia’s inflation currently stands at 5.50%.
This overshoots the central bank's inflation target of 4.00%
Markets betting on a rate hike by the Russian Central Bank August from 5.00% to 6.00%
Russian 10 Year Bond Yield sits at 7.20%.
Higher Inflation data could push up bond yields are cause the currency to strengthen.
