Method

base: reference class = Bank of Russia meetings right after it paused an easing cycle (2017-2025): reversals to a hike at the next meeting are rare, about 1 in 10. signals: LR 1.5 underlying inflation re-accelerated to 5-6% annualised, fuel shortages, second-round effects, possible bigger budget deficit; LR 0.8 Nabiullina framed September as a 'pause' in cutting, not a turn.
