Moody's decided to improve the forecast for Russian ratings

In an international rating agency Moody's decided to change the performance indicators of the sovereign rating of the Russian Federation. Recall that in the 2014 year, after the introduction of sanctions against Russia, this and other rating structures, actually controlled by the United States, almost simultaneously went down the Russian ratings almost to the “garbage” marks, although Russia had impressive gold reserves and regularly performed duties on debt service.

Now Moody's has upgraded its long-term rating from “stable” to “positive”. In the rating classification of this agency - option Ba1.

The press release says that this decision was made in relation to Russia due to a number of factors. From Moody's press release:

The Russian economy has coped qualitatively with the shock oil prices and sanctions, which continue to operate today. Fiscal policy adjustments were made by the (Russian) government.

It was noted that, against this background, Russia's vulnerability to external negative factors such as geopolitical tensions or new possible drops in oil prices has decreased.

Earlier, the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia noted that with the current oil prices, the Russian economy will probably add 1,5% by the end of the year. This is below the global average economic growth, which is now approximately 2,2-2,3%.

Would they go to a smarty grandmother ! We will not die without their ratings! They squealed, political t-tuts!

[serg.shishkov2015]

Yeah! A good thing is not called that!

Sucks ... start to praise ... wait for the next trick for our country.

You need to look at all this from the other side, as if the "drain of Ukraine" is being prepared and they are trying to raise us in the rating so that there is no resonance in the future. It seems like they transferred from black to gray . Now you can white and fluffy Ukraine to get wet in a dirty puddle. After all, a beggar is not particularly loved anywhere.

[Cxnumx]

and where to blame the government?) even I can for example: oil prices have risen - ratings have risen)
Threat and so, yes - us army, what they write there.

Gritted teeth crumble with annoyance, but the obvious has to be recognized.

from “stable” to “positive”

We decided to throw a gingerbread, but what "ask" in return?

Moody's - Print your ratings on this. Will be something to read in the morning

And I guess what part of the body will read them.

"..qualifiedly with the shock oil prices ..", gee. All in all, the Shaitans needed to be gouged, and all the purses of terrorism were visiting us with the question: “What are you so pleased about?” . Already a Saudi spider crawled out of the hole. The budget has a couple of billion dollars a month only at the expense of oil prices. By "triumphs" they began to indulge in something. They will buy a brick with fear, they should be offered.

Now Moody's specialists have upgraded the long-term rating from “stable” to “positive”

Decreased, so to speak. But for good it’s all bullshit overseas, and therefore its forest, forest ...

I wonder what they will sing after a new package of sanctions?

Ratings affect credit conditions. And it, according to the sanctions, is not available for Russia. Preparing for the lifting of sanctions? And will Europe "fight" with the USA? This will be unexpected. Can the US fight for the remnants of hegemony lead to SUCH consequences?

Not only for lending. This is a very serious WEAPON. Many countries have laws that require public funds to invest only! in accordance with the ratings of the listed agencies. Therefore, a change in rating necessarily leads to the movement of trillions of dollars. Therefore, this WEAPON acts even when it is not used: sometimes one threat of its use is enough.

It did not work to discredit the state of the Russian economy with the participation of all sorts of muds, so the muds decided to raise Russia's rating so as not to discredit themselves. Obama's words about the shreds of the Russian economy were just loud bubbles in the puddle in which he had sat.

[Golovan Jack]

You, IMHO, said better than you even wanted. I re-read the third time:

Quote: Alex-a832

Obama's words ... were just loud bubbles in the pool in which he sat

1. Obama sat in a puddle. Well, alright - it happens to everyone.
2. He sat down and started blowing bubbles. Already, ahem, erotic ... but also - nothing unreal.
3. But in the process of "launching" suddenly appeared words
But this is already really cool. I certainly couldn’t ...
Friday morning ... what will happen in the evening

[Alex-a832]

According to my observations, the State Departments with American prezies were so trained in blowing bubbles in a puddle that they became virtuosos. And not only separate words give out, but also very voluminous speeches. A kind of ventriloquist ...

Analyzes are given either in a jar or in a box. And I think that a diagnosis has already been made to all these mattress dolls.

[Luga]

One person is a person. And two are people. One egg is an egg. And two are Moody. I don’t know what there is of the economy in these ratings, but there are many more policies in them. I do not care about the ratings, but the fact itself is pleasant.

We live in the most beautiful country in the world, and all other countries envy us.
We proudly call our country RUSSIA, and foreigners enviously say "Russia", but still it is ours!

After Moody's got into a mess before the financial crisis began in 2007, they all had to do a group sepukka. “Wise” they, and not “Modis”.
