The US dollar's exchange rate experienced a significant drop, slipping below 100 rubles, following an announcement by the Bank of Russia regarding an upcoming meeting to determine the key rate. 

The forecasted exchange rate for the US dollar for tomorrow amounts to 99.68 rubles.

This depreciation is believed to stem from the central bank's scheduled meeting of the board of directors tomorrow, aimed at deciding the key rate: such that determining the key rate is expected to influence both local and global financial conditions.
