Russian rouble flat vs US dollar after Trump's inauguration - REUTERS
MOSCOW, Jan 21 (Reuters) - The Russian rouble stayed flat against the U.S. dollar on Tuesday as the first day of Donald Trump's presidency did not produce any major Russia-related news.
The rouble traded at 100.75 to the dollar by 0845 GMT, over-the-counter market data showed. The rouble strengthened by 0.8% to 13.72 against China's yuan in trading on the Moscow Stock Exchange (MOEX).
"The geopolitical factor does not yet have a direct influence on the Russian foreign exchange market," Bank of St. Petersburg analysts said.
