Financial analyst Andrei Kuznetsov did not rule out that the exchange will soon see a serious sinking of the dollar and euro against the Russian currency. The ruble is heading up due to the rise in the cost of petroleum products.
“Recently, the cost of black gold has been going up, which naturally affects the strengthening of the domestic currency,” – leads words of the expert VM.RU.
Kuznetsov noted that foreign currency subsidence should be expected in April. The fact is that this month such factors as the beginning of the tax period and VAT payments will additionally play in favor of the ruble. Companies in such a period need rubles, so the demand for currency decreases.
“In April, the value of the single European currency will not exceed 85.45 rubles against today’s 87.8 rubles,” the analyst said. As for the dollar, according to him, if by mid-April they can give 75-76 rubles for the American currency, then by the end of the month the dollar will collapse to 70-71 rubles.
“If it were not for Western sanctions, which put pressure on the Russian currency, the dollar could well cost 67 rubles, and the euro – 78,” the analyst also noted.
At the same time, he named the factors that can play against the ruble: new more serious sanctions, aggravation of the situation with coronavirus, adjustments in stock markets.
