Analysis

The peg has held through wars, oil shocks, COVID, and the 2008 crisis without a single adjustment. With Brent above $100/bbl, Saudi Arabia runs a fiscal surplus well above its breakeven. The repo rate follows the Fed mechanically. Peg stress only emerges at sustained Brent below $40/bbl - not the current scenario. A sustained break above 3.80 or below 3.70 has never occurred.
