Energy market:

The German chancellor flew to China. Offered to be friends against Russia. Wise Xi knew in advance why Scholz granted, and did not shake hands with him. So they were at a distance, expecting that one would pounce on the other. They had such tense negotiations.

And then the Frenchman Macron refused to fly with Scholz on the same plane to the G20 summit. The Germans were unlucky last week. But the temperature in Berlin is +16. So far it’s a hit here. But some European countries have already begun to withdraw gas from storage facilities. The game has begun.

Hello!

This issue has been prepared with the direct participation of analysts from eOil.ru and IDK.ru trading platforms.

The British Hindu, who is also the new Prime Minister, has forbidden something to explore on the island and to extract oil and gas from the bowels. The pound is no longer so strong, but it can still be bought for something in the world. Britain is waiting for an unprecedented shortage of resources and tax increases. It is very similar to the fact that London blew up the Nord Streams. If evidence of a crime is obtained, then questions will already arise among those who still hoped to get gas through these pipes. And then we remember the city of Berlin and the fact that the Germans have been unlucky lately. Wise men in Washington have invented a formula, no, not a formula of love, but a formula according to which they will calculate the price of oil for Russia. The EU and Australia supported the project. That is, the price will be set for Russia by the great hegemon. It’s good that we can refuse to be robbed so impudently. Oil is likely to stay above $90.00 a barrel as the lifting of strict covid restrictions in China will boost demand for hydrocarbons.

Grain market:

Russia withdrew from the grain deal, but then re-entered it. The futures market did not remain in debt. He was initially thrown up, then lowered down. It was difficult to make money on the rapid development of events.

Since Friday, the Russian press, cautiously, but with some hope, began to speculate that the conflict in Ukraine will end in the next few months. These are still fantasies and rumors, but they can develop into some kind of forecasts for specific dates in the next few weeks.

If the prospect of a settlement looms on the horizon, the grain market will fall by at least 10%. Russia agreed to donate 500,000 tons of food to the poorest countries. This is a timely move that will improve the image of our country in the eyes of the international community. But still, I would like to get something in return. At least beads, or here medicinal plants, the Afghans recently offered by barter, though for oil, but let them supply us with dried black roots and all kinds of powders for grain. And what. Come in handy.

USD/RUB:

The US Federal Reserve on November 2 raised the rate by 0.75% to 4%. After the announcement of the decision, the stock and commodity markets declined, but later the decline stopped, and the gold market turned up on Friday. It should be noted that the physical gold market is 15-20% higher than the quotes on the stock market.

The ruble reacted to news from across the ocean about a rate increase with a slight weakening, but nothing significant has happened so far. The pair rose to the level of 62.00, but could not go higher. Most likely, the market will continue to remain above the 60.00 level, but there will be no strong changes in the ruble against the dollar. Above 65.00 the market is not visible yet.

USD/RUB

Growth scenario: On Thursday, the dollar rose slightly on the back of higher US rates.
