Amazing how crisis brings the worst and best in people ! When missiles are inbound, Blue eyes and Blond hair gets you a priority seat in train/bus or place in line to border ! In Phuket after Tsunami, all foreigners, effected or not, were given priority in relief, transport and eventual evacuation ! Beautiful place and people

So many disagree ! I hope no one of them went short

If sanctions last, BTC will slowly start breaking it's positive co-relation with S&P ! Over long scales (months) BTC may have finally turned with a bullish trend ! Alts may take much longer though

Retail activity (morning opening hour) seems to be ending on a significant level (4340) ! Waiting seems to be outcome of peace process !  Meanwhile, at this level, it looks like institutions might get hungry when they get active later in the day,, so I will have to watch my back

last week, retail lead 'buy the dip' while institutions waited for sanctions ! Retail trying the same trick today too ! if peace talks (happening now) do not fail, they just might pull it off too :)

 ,, Leaders should know if they are sending people to slaughter house or into battlefield because people don't know and trust leaders ! What he is asking people to do is not Gu**** attacks but die just to be a statistic ! Save the people, and live to fight,  Afghanistan style ! Putin is not nice, these deaths are pointless ,, Leaders should know if they are sending people to slaughter house or into battlefield because people don't know and trust leaders !

Putin on the move in kharkiv ! As expected, army is shelling heavily before they advance into any area ! Unfortunately, these areas a high density residential where people haven't evacuated and were waiting with bottles in hand to fight back ! The body count WILL not be pretty when it ends !

 ,, Soon, just wait for Xi to make his move ,, Soon, just wait for Xi to make his move

It seems Russia has lost air superiority, which could have kept civilian casualty rate low ! Ground troops can only move under heavy arty cover resulting in indiscriminate firing ! Ukraine prez is hoping to magnify this death rate by asking civilian people to stay back and (kinda) fight alongside army, rather than evacuate ! He hopes Putin is a good man and not risk this ! Is that good (Ukraine) leadership? Time will tell

 ,, Hmm it may not even require nukes ! Putin cannot keep sending troop convoys on roads which are near tall buildings ! Those are d*ath traps ! So will he or won't he start razing everything taller than 9 feet before moving troops forward? How badly does he want to win? ,, Hmm it may not even require nukes ! Putin cannot keep sending troop convoys on roads which are near tall buildings ! Those are d*ath traps !

Nuclear ?

next milestone should be peace talks,,, it is the best to hope for

SWIFT sanction does not cover payments for oil and gas ! So it's worse for those of us, who hedged non-oil with oil stocks since both will potentially head lower now !  metals will be sluggish too ! Market cannot factor in nukes cause then nothing matters

I exprected ,,"Possible reversal from 4400" when EVERY podcaster was shouting "bottom is in" ! Looking at today's futures, I guess, none of us got it right

If we approve of Indian students being beaten and turned back from border crossings, to serve as hostage by Ukraine authorities, then we are also approving Canadian citizens being held hostage by China ! Holding civilians hostage, needs to be condemned in the same UN resolution where Russia is pegged up his a**

While it may be too early to talk strategic and tactical missiles, it may be time to test our tactical nuclear artillery assets ! If Putin talks of something, he seems to have already planned it well in advance ! Japan has already requested nuclear 'sharing' agreement, so one of Japan's northern islands, close to Russia, can be testing site  ! This way both China and Russia can be sent a message ! Either way, market gonna move

"Payments for oil and gas are excluded' from these SWIFT sanctions ? huh? They should have opened press conference with that

Oil to the moon

 , NVM ;)) , NVM ;))

Russian CB and other selected listed Banks now banned from SWIFT system ! However Russia still not ejected from this Society ! But NVM, this is bullish for Gold ! Eyes now on Shanghai gold exchange ! I think that will now see most of the action if sanctions last ! SGE is the black hole where physical gold goes in, never to appear ever again ;)

Biden wouldn't even sanction SWIFT but expects India to support Ukraine,,,when Ukraine has traditionally been hostile to India ! So I don't hold much hope for Biden to help Taiwan  (next in line) ! Biden needs to stop seeing the world thru color glasses

 ,, Lol , I believe Ukraine ambassador in UN security council, threated the safety of Indian students in Ukraine, if India does not support resolution against Russia ! It's been reported in Chinese media so not sure if it's really true ! It true, then it's in line with past Ukraine-India relations, i guess ,, Lol , I believe Ukraine ambassador in UN security council, threated the safety of Indian students in Ukraine, if India does not support resolution against Russia !

Vlad had requested Ukraine, Sweden and Finland not to join NATO ! After looking at NATO help to Ukraine (zero), both Sweden and Finland have declared their withdrawal from process of joining NATO, showing shift in power game in Europe ! This news mostly ignored in western media, has been prominently covered in Xi's media ! Xi may be close to making a move
