Economists discuss the impact of the depreciation of the ruble on ordinary citizens of Russia

In connection with the situation in the oil market and its impact on the exchange rate of the Russian ruble, economists began to discuss how this situation will affect the lives of ordinary citizens of Russia.

Recall that as a result of a drop in oil prices (by almost a third), the Russian currency also collapsed. After the jump in the dollar and the euro to 75 and 85 rubles, respectively, there was some adjustment. At the moment, these currencies are trading at 72,7 and 82,6 rubles. A barrel of Brent crude oil won back about $ 6 yesterday and is sold at about $ 37,2.

Economists say that speculators can take advantage of the market situation. Even if the ruble regains its main position against the backdrop of newly growing oil, for speculators this will not be an occasion to return prices immediately to the level of March 6-7. And it's not just about speculators.

First of all, a significant rise in price will be associated with foreign goods. And this is an extensive product group: from clothing and medicine to cars.

At the same time, experts believe that there will not be a rise in price of essential food products, including bread, cereals, milk, chicken eggs.

It is noted that there will be a further decrease in the number of Russians who want to get to rest abroad. This is due not only to the depreciation of the ruble, but also to the spread of the coronavirus COVID-19.

In general, it is noted that the average Russian may face a decrease in purchasing power, and the duration of the process depends on how quickly the exchange rate of the national currency stabilizes. At the same time, it can be stated that talking about “Russia's withdrawal from dollar dependence and from the dependence of the ruble exchange rate on oil prices” was, to say the least, premature.

Here's the steamed rice that I take a lot. Price - 115 rubles. Yes, not 150, but "~", since there are 140 each, and even more expensive.
Specifically, this is bought up often.
Buckwheat is a bit cheaper, but everything is exactly not what I took in 2015, when quality buckwheat cost 45-60 rubles!

Kura, 175 rubles per kg! And there is 1.5-2kg.

And there is not the whole catalog of what is in the store.
For example: the chicken again, they have a bit cheaper, but the quality ... Such, a little blue.

The only thing that is cheap is smoked ribs. 260 rubles for half-kg of ribs, 3 kg of potatoes, onions, dill and head of garlic. The current has now made a fool of himself.

[balunn]

depending on what wages. In general, you begin to consider a trifle as applied to batteries, but do not think that our gasoline and fuel will not go down, like a normal country, but will creep up, because a handful of oligarchs do not intend to lose their income. And once the fuel component climbs up, then everything will climb automatically behind it.

[Andrei from Chelyabinsk]

Despite the fact that the Central Bank, in fact, controls the ruble exchange rate and, strictly speaking, it is not particularly connected with the price of oil. Changes in the exchange rate are not dictated by the cost of oil, but by the wishes of the Central Bank

[SOF]

Quote: Andrey from Chelyabinsk

Despite the fact that the Central Bank, in fact, controls the ruble

..... and how long has the Central Bank managed the ruble exchange rate? ... don't you confuse anything? .... The Central Bank, like, through currency interventions, has the ability to keep the ruble in the price range, but the exchange rate itself is speculative ... .

[Andrei from Chelyabinsk]

I am not at all inclined to confusion. And yes, the Central Bank controls the ruble exchange rate and no one else. Of course, there are speculators in the ruble market, but there are not too many of them against the background of purchases / sales of rubles and currencies by companies producing and selling real goods, and speculators are also predictable

[SOF]

Quote: Andrey from Chelyabinsk

I am not at all inclined to confusion. And yes, the Central Bank controls the ruble exchange rate and no one else.

... an absolutely unfounded assertion based on conspiracy theories like Nibiru and the age-old battle of the Reptilians with someone else .... regardless of the fact that, in powerlessness to argue their position, the running fighters strenuously pressed the "minus". ..;)

[Andrei from Chelyabinsk]

This "absolutely unfounded statement" I have explained more than once in my articles. And in order to understand its truth, it is enough to pull your head out of a hard-to-reach place and think about it a little.
So, the ruble as the currency in the world did not fall to anyone. Because we do not trade for rubles with other countries, but only for dollars / euros or their equivalent. Accordingly, the bulk of transactions for the purchase and sale of the ruble comes from our own exporters and importers, when they need it to settle transactions. This is a completely predictable flow, which the child will also be able to regulate, because even in the richest and richest years of the Russian Federation, the balance of foreign trade expenses and income was ALWAYS positive, that is, there were more people who wanted to sell the currency than there were people who wanted to buy it.
Some notable investments of speculators in the ruble were only when the ruble strengthened against the dollar for a long time, but even then we were talking about relatively small volumes, and now, when the ruble is slowly falling, who will keep deposits in it? Why should a currency speculator change dollars into rubles and lose in dollars?
And yes, I recommend working on the presentation. You try to speak literary, but such a game turns out :)))))

[RideMaster]

You see, on this site they boast of weapons and Syria, but at the same time, as far as the financial issue is concerned, all their patriotism subsides. And everyone is to blame.
They also say something about China. They should give a hint about the fact that half of the pensioners do not have a pension there.

[Andrei from Chelyabinsk]

Quote: Bomb

And then the government and the Central Bank?

Despite the fact that a drop in oil prices is not at all obliged to drag a drop in the ruble.

[Elephant]

Our Central Bank is simply unique! While all foreign countries, foreseeing the crisis, were engaged in replenishment of gold reserves, the Central Bank for some reason began to curtail purchases in the domestic market. So, of the precious metal produced in 2018 in the country, only 16 tons went for export, and 95% remained in Russia. But already in the past 2019, 100,5 tons of gold left the country, that is, a third of the gold produced.

[Nikolay73]

Tell me, do you understand in the mechanisms of the gold and foreign exchange reserve and its regulation, the weight of gold in assets, if so, explain it on your fingers, I will listen with pleasure and, I think, not only me ...

[yang174]

Well, are you good at gold reserves? Sell them quickly only with dumping. You have to deal with the economy, and not store iron and gold

Strange conclusions. How can we talk about dollar independence if the main trading is still in dollars?
The type author wanted to join the stream.

At the same time, it can be stated that the talk about “Russia's withdrawal from dollar dependence and from the dependence of the ruble exchange rate on oil prices” was, to say the least, premature.

The article itself is premature, leaving the dollar needle is not simple, difficult and painful for everyone, and it's not two or three years ago.

[Andrei from Chelyabinsk]

Everything would be fine, but that the ruble was tear off the oil needle in 2018 by none other than Siluanov, at that time - the Minister of Finance of the Russian Federation

[mkop]

Siluanov says such things to the public that it’s not like laughing - one wants to cry. When he makes public statements, then it is necessary to make (and understand him) exactly the opposite, regarding his words.

Do you think that this situation has other consequences and may be beneficial to the state for refusing to borrow?

[Andrei from Chelyabinsk]

I know the consequences of this situation. There is no refusal to borrow, we have already refused it, the state debt of the Russian Federation is small. Pure budget balancing

There was information about the freezing of OFZ issues (I'm not talking about external borrowing), on balancing - I completely agree with you ...

[Far B]

Economists say speculators can take advantage of the market situation

Where does this pessimism come from? What do you mean - "can"? They will certainly use it, otherwise what are they, to hell, speculators?

In general, it is noted that the average Russian may face a decrease in purchasing power

Again, pessimism is unjustified. What kind of "can"? Experts need more confidence, more cheerful, or something.

[megadeth]

The high level of the ruble for the government and the Central Bank is bad, low too ... Enemy Trump, six months ago, uttered that the most undervalued currency is the Russian ruble ... For the people, only bread, cereals, milk and a chicken egg are left, the rest is for the rich and the elite with those close to them. ..The article is not about anything, where does the review get such "analysts" from ..

[bessmertniy]

Yes, yes, it is necessary to speak with optimism about the availability of plenty of places in hospitals and cemeteries, about symbolic work and salaries, about the decline in culture and morals, about measures taken and efforts, etc.! And how all our enemies envy us and die in black envy by millions.

Everything suited Russia and we weren’t going to change anything, but the United States wanted to reduce world production in order to immediately occupy the vacant niche with its oil, well, the Arabs were simply "offended" and turned on hard dumping.

What are the reasons? And where are the benefits?
I repeat once again, everything suited us until we began to twist our arms and offer extremely unprofitable schemes. We simply had no other normal choice. In short, study the question thoroughly and do not immediately try to blame Russia for everything, everything is wrong here.

[Honest Citizen]

Maxim.
So we have the following initial analysis of the situation.
The Russian budget is tied to energy prices.
In the world economy, because of the coronavirus, a recession has begun to mature it will consume less energy. Consequently - less to buy.
With reduced demand and high supply - where will the prices go? It’s logical that down.
What did the Saudis offer? Cut back on production.
What did Novak answer? He refused.
Of course, prices collapsed.
But our oil industry will not suffer, because the difference in prices will compensate it from the NWF.
Am I missing something? Those. the redistribution of money from the NWF into the pocket of Rosneft - what do I tell you ir, do you consider it good for Russia? The provoked fall in oil prices, the collapse of the ruble at the whim of Sechin - nice people, but it already gives the monarchy.
But you are not so. These are insidious Saudis, in a secret conspiracy with the United States, prices fell so that the United States would promote its shale ...
Turn on your head.

[maxim947]

I am fully aware that you will not be able to prove anything, but I will try to share my opinion. Oil was consumed in a certain amount before the virus, and will continue to be consumed in more or less the same amount, factories are also working, cars are driving, etc. all these "fears" have been wound up by the media mostly artificially. So, after the decline in oil production, there is a "shortage" of it, or, more correctly, a deficit, which for a relatively long time has been tidied up with mattresses and actually sold quietly. So, the Russian Federation did not agree with such market relations, because they were completely mortified.
Now a rhetorical question - what should we do?
They simply pressed us against the wall, hence such a reaction, and I agree that this is bad for us, but alas ...
And by the way, do you really believe in clean pricing on the exchange? Everything there when you need to be manually adjusted and do not even bother much about the causes and explanations of what is happening, as well as the establishment of indices and other rubbish.

[Honest Citizen]

after a decrease in oil production, a "shortage" of it is formed, or, more correctly, a deficit, which has long been tidied up with mattresses and actually sold quietly.

So our delegation understood this moment, but the Saudi did not? After all, they also have an oil economy.

And by the way, do you really believe in clean pricing on the exchange?

I don’t believe that because of the word “absolutely”.

[maxim947]

So, now we are back to dumping))) the Saudis will thus supplant individual suppliers from the market, then they will take their places and slowly the prices will return to the original. And this, by the way, has already happened more than once. If you take the long term, they do not lose anything. Now in the negative, in a year or two they will return the lost. If they don’t break off.

[RideMaster]

Quietly quiet. There is nothing to do with the correct dogma and understanding of things)))

[loki565]

According to the idea, the first ones to fall off: alternative energy, shale gas, etc. they are not profitable if oil is below $ 40. On the other hand, the United States has a printing press, they can stupidly subsidize these industries.

[krops777]

Judging by the article, the author did not want to say anything, he just decided to hype on a popular topic.

Now it is important to hold a referendum on the Constitution, and in this regard, the Central Bank may be instructed to lay bones, but not to allow the ruble to fall at least for this time.
The Bank of Russia has already stopped buying foreign currency on the market for a month. Is this enough to keep the “wooden” afloat? We will see.

[balunn]

and gasoline will rise in price in the first place. the difference in lost revenue from someone you need to take

[Glory1974]

Recall that as a result of a drop in oil prices (by almost a third), the Russian currency also collapsed.

There is not enough information to analyze, so the conclusions may be erroneous.
For example, the last time when oil prices collapsed, the ruble depreciated by 2 times. And in Nigeria, where the budget consists of 95% oil money, the local currency depreciated by 10%.
In this case, the ruble also did not collapse, it was specially collapsed.
In general, exchanges were specially organized so that ordinary people did not understand anything, and beneficiaries could catch fish in troubled waters.

[bessmertniy]

I believe that they collapsed on purpose to redistribute attractive stocks in their favor.

[Runoway]

They collapsed specifically to compensate for losses from sales on the foreign market, as they sold oil for $ and they sell it, only here the labor force in the country has fallen in price twice

And then the "drawdown" by 12-15%, and already panic? It is the United States that is panicking, their stock exchanges have sagged, the "shale" shuddered ...
Those who buy expensive foreign cars will not notice such a "rise in price" ...

From January 1, 2014 to December 2015, the ruble weakened by half: from 32,66 rubles per dollar to the 71st. As a result, inflation in 2014 amounted to 11,36%, and in 2015 - 12,91%, and this is the largest figure in the last decade.

Well, yes, only Russia lives on the price of oil. Why then do all world indices fall?
In theory, oil is getting cheaper and everything is getting cheaper, goods are getting cheaper - the purchasing power of the population is growing.

In theory, oil is getting cheaper and everything is getting cheaper goods are getting cheaper-the purchasing power of the population is growing.

And about the ruble to the dollar and the euro, have you never heard anything? And how many imports do we have, in spite of all the bravura statements about import substitution, do you have any idea?
I don’t even know how to comment on this. Well, perhaps like this:

[demiurg]

Especially for those who repeat questions in the tank.

Why are indices falling around the world when oil is getting cheaper? After all, everything in the world is derived from oil-energy. An abundance of cheap energy means an abundance of cheap goods, and an increase in purchasing power. Why did the snr500 index sag like in 2008? US and EEC state gas stations?

The exchange rate is interesting only to bankers. I am interested in teaching staff. And the faculty is now falling all over the world.

You tell it when you buy at new, higher prices, fuel at gas stations, consumer goods and products. Here, maybe they will understand you and sell you at discounted prices.

PS Although, you can already rush to the gas station and demand to refuel you at a lower price. Oil has already fallen in price! Good luck at the gas station, who understands everything is a friend.

I give an answer for those who, of course, are not in the tank.
1) The ruble exchange rate, as well as the fullness of the budget (as well as the insurance fund), largely depends on foreign exchange earnings from the sale of energy. Those. ruble exchange rate is derived primarily from the price of oil / USD
2) The country (RF) is completely dependent on imports in the production of consumer goods, motor vehicles, equipment, and even food in the end.
3) The cheaper the ruble, the more expensive the import, because import will not fall in price by as much as devalue the ruble exchange rate. The history of the ruble to help you.
4) Where, in the history of the Russian Federation, with the devaluation of the ruble, did the purchasing power of the population grow ?!
Let me remind you how remarkably the "purchasing power" of the population has grown after the landslide depreciation of the national currency. The crisis of the 94th dubbed "Black Tuesday" or in 1998.

Leave this chance to yourself. Moreover, you have not voiced that you are not satisfied in my explanation above. In addition, it concerns the situation in the Russian Federation.
I live in Russia, and it is completely violet to me that there with the markets in the USA. However, as with the consumer demand of US citizens. For Russian citizens, it’s more interesting and exciting for me. Because these are my relatives, friends, acquaintances, and just compatriots.
And the only market that personally concerns me is the cryptocurrency market. With a cue ball course. And my TA allows me to act in this market is not very bad. Currently 8 out of 10 transactions are successful. And there is every chance to bring my TS to perfection and improve performance to 9 out of 10 (10 out of 10, this is of course a dream, but hardly possible, if only 9 point and tenths). If you want to discuss about the cryptocurrency rate and the opening of long or short positions in the medium term, then go to the special. chat - tradingview, and there we will discuss on a fascinating topic - the movements of this market. Which, the bulk of the citizens of the Russian Federation, is also violet. Unlike consumer prices for goods and services within the Russian Federation itself, not the United States.

[Leshy1975]

Quote: K-612-O

So excuse the dollar is falling, in relation to other currencies. But at the opening of trading, the ruble is already less than 72.

Of course, to some falls. The fact that the USD rate fell at the opening is normal. Firstly, the markets are moving, with corrections. There is no recoilless growth, as well as falling. And secondly (NTV source):
Bank of Russia Starting March 10, it begins proactive sale of foreign currency in the domestic market.
The decision was made with the aim of "increasing the predictability of the monetary authorities and reducing the volatility of financial markets" in the face of a collapse in oil prices and the depreciation of the ruble. CBR interventions will continue until regular foreign currency sales begin from the National Welfare Fund.

PS Question. If the crisis drags on and the period of low energy prices lasts long enough, up to the complete exhaustion of the NWF funds. There are doubts that the ruble exchange rate to major currencies in this case will fly into space?

The ruble in the domestic market really does not depend much on the dollar, since the budget began to be accepted in rubles, it is not particularly dependent on oil, it mainly depends on the amount of the budget. Here is the dependence on the foreign market when the ruble depreciates against the dollar and growth in oil leads to positive consequences - the growth of the ruble income of the domestic oil industry and its solvency in the country, the increase in the competitiveness of domestic goods leads to additional income of the domestic producer, which gives people additional jobs, reducing the burden of ruble debt; so and negative - the rise in imports and external costs.

... I haven’t lost anything, I don’t have ruble assets, in any case, real estate will retain its market value :) and even a little ...

Everyone has ruble assets — this is salary, pension, etc. Now the prices will jump, and the salary increase is not yet expected. Everyone will lose!

here do not go to a fortuneteller prices have soared today for a number of goods. For ordinary Russians with their ruble penny wages this is very tangible. Undoubtedly, the price will creep on absolutely everything from products, medicines, things, household appliances, to cars. In my personal case, the sound card that I wanted to buy in just a day grew in price by the order of 500-700 rubles

An example of soaring prices is possible. It’s just that my stupid guy only shows discounts.

Well now, thanks to chemistry and preservatives, your table has become more diverse and healthier.

Chemistry, GMOs, preservatives, palm oil - welcome to the 21st century.
There is nothing perfect in this world.
Why now say "How then did people in the USSR survive by eating their seasonal vegetables ..."? You may not have noticed, but life in Russia has changed a lot compared to the USSR, after all, 29 years old, a whole generation.
After all, not only the table, but also we have become different. Both habits and tastes have changed. Less bread, more meat and fresh vegetables, and children are used to eating fruits every day, and they don’t understand how tangerines are only in a New Year’s present.

You know I noticed. But alas, how much I didn’t want it, someone didn’t feel it.

You're not very involved in history. So pure balabol.

I’ll ask a historian for the story, not a doctor, if that’s the case.

Guard!!!! The Exchange, a feminine creature, celebrated its holiday in a unique way with full-fledged hysterics. Maybe they gave her the wrong flowers, they didn’t give her enough compliments, and in general, she has a headache. By chance, almost all of her irrepressible energy went to oil prices. Yesterday they immediately lost more than 30%, dropping to $31,3 in Brent. Let's not forget: the exchange does not trade oil, but hopes and fears. Hope is in short supply now, and fears are in abundance.

It’s interesting, do many here on the forum remember August 1998, then the Prime Minister was the Kindersurprise of the world, Kiriyenko? When does it go from 5 hazel grouse to 25?

When they agree on oil, the rate will slowly but return. There will only be lamentations in the comments on this site. And, perhaps, gasoline prices will rise (well, of course, oil jumped from $30 to $50).

Remind me WHEN WAS THIS COURSE RETURNED? If the price of the US dollar begins to fall, then the Central Bank will begin purchasing the dollar, holding it, but if it’s the other way around, then they will tell us that the ruble is freely floating and these are market relations and Nabiulin has nothing to do with it. About a positive trend! And the fact that the Ruble is greatly undervalued! About the increased competitive ability of Russian goods (Considering all Russians to be fools)
Never before in modern Russia (since 1991) The dollar did not depreciate.

Saudi Arabia has a fixed rial to dollar exchange rate (and this rate will have to be actively defended by burning foreign exchange reserves), a budget deficit of $50 billion a year is 6,5 percent of GDP, and this was at a Brent oil price of $60 per barrel and budget balancing prices (Al Rajhi Capital estimate from October 2019) at $71 per barrel. In these conditions, Saudi foreign exchange reserves (approximately $501 billion - data for January 2020) will not last very long, especially considering that in Saudi conditions (Forbes 2018 estimate) the Saudi budget consists of 87 percent of oil revenues. Against this background, Russia looks like a standard of financial stability: a deficit-free budget (it is clear that with a sharp drop in prices, there will be a certain deficit, but the starting point is much better), a floating exchange rate, the percentage of oil and gas revenues in budget revenues (data from the Russian Ministry of Finance for 2019) - 40,8 percent.
