The Central Bank has renewed the purchase of currency on the domestic market. In particular, on May 3 the regulator spent 18.5 billion rubles on this. As noted on the website of the Central Bank, the acquisition was made in the interests of the Ministry of Finance. This means that hoping for a depreciation of the dollar in the near future is not worth it. It should be noted that the last time before this, the Central Bank bought the currency on the domestic market on April 27. Then the purchase amount was 18.8 billion rubles. In general, for a month, from April 6 to May 8, the regulator intended to purchase currency for 240.7 billion rubles. For this purpose it was required daily to spread from the treasury to 11.5 billion rubles. However, the jump in the rate made its adjustments to the plans of the regulator. The sharp fall of the ruble in early April and, accordingly, the appreciation of the dollar, euro and other foreign currencies forced the Central Bank to take a pause. It was decided not to conduct any transactions with the currency from 9 to 16 April at all. At the same time, the Bank of Russia noted that for the resumption of the planned plans, the ruble will not have to wait for strengthening: the Central Bank will buy currency at any rate, the main thing is that it should stabilize. Apparently, such a time has come. The dollar has been in the corridor for 63 days now, 63-64 rubles, the euro - 73-74. This was enough for the regulator to make another major acquisition. Considering that usually after large purchases of currency in the domestic market the ruble becomes somewhat cheaper, then it is not necessary to wait for the depreciation of the dollar and the euro. Moreover, the US financial policy is aimed at strengthening the dollar and increasing its attractiveness in the world. Apparently, everything is going well with Washington.
