Russian rouble corrects after rally fuelled by US-Russia talks - REUTERS
MOSCOW, March 20 (Reuters) - The Russian rouble weakened further on Thursday, adjusting after a significant rally since the start of the year that has been fuelled by hopes of an easing in geopolitical tensions amid talks between Russia and the United States.
By 0920 GMT, the rouble was down 0.4% at 84.30 against the dollar in the over-the-counter market, extending its losses from the previous session when it fell 2.8%, its biggest daily drop since the beginning of the year.
