In the coming week, the ruble will be affected by several negative factors, most of them are external.

The main problem, according to analysts, is that optimism about the growth of the global economy has stopped in recent months. PMIs in the US and the rest of the world have already declined, driven by more aggressive strains of the coronavirus. Against their background, countries can return restrictions and lockdowns, which will affect the economy.

Such vigilance directly affects risky assets – stocks, raw materials, emerging market currencies, and hence the ruble. During the week, indicators will be published that will either ease the tension or, on the contrary, aggravate it.
