The ruble will weaken against the dollar until certain changes occur in the Russian economy. About this “Lente.ru” declaration Candidate of Economic Sciences, Financial Analyst Mikhail Belyaev.
“In April, at least basically, we will see 78 rubles per dollar, and market fluctuations will be around 78, and by the end of the month it will be 79 and maybe 80,” Belyaev said.
According to him, the strengthening of the dollar is not related to the increase in oil prices. At the same time, the ruble was driven by oil prices 20 years ago. Now the exchange rate of the ruble is almost independent of the cost of black gold.
He added that the gradual weakening of the ruble has continued since December, when the country’s economic growth slowed somewhat. Therefore, the state of the Russian economy now raises some questions due to the inertia of economic units. The thing is that Russian entrepreneurs do not show the necessary activity that will contribute to the economic growth of the country.
