Russia’s Central Bank announced that though the currency market and commodity trading will reopen today, trading on the equity market will remain shut down during the week of March 14.
This will be the third week.
Speculation is no longer about whether the Russian economy will collapse, but how long until it does.
"Russia now faces a choice between another 1918, 1991 or 1998-style economic crisis."

Kremlin has replied to stories that they are asking for aid from China.
They say they have ample supplies.
Central Bank of Russia will keep Stock Mkt close till 3/18/ 2022
Meanwhile reports have come out that FSB heads are under house arrest.
Seems Putin feels he was given bad information on how hard the Ukrainians would fight for their country.
Yikes! Here on Day #19 ---of ongoing horrors and atrocities from Vlad the Invader's unprovoked and unnecessary war on the independent democratic free nation of Ukraine---it is obvious this thread has been invaded by cheerleaders of criminality, apologists for aggressive authoritarianism and promoters of Putin propaganda.
Yep, another thread taken over by non-stop proliferation of outlandish history re-writes, preposterous & mendacious justifications for international law breaking and disgusting deflections and distractions from Putin's detrimental dismissal of agreements that have kept the peace across the European continent for decades.
The preponderance of postings over the past several days are trying to spin & present a farcical view that is not only abhorrent and disturbingly twisted but deadly dangerous...and one thankfully not shared by the world writ large.
Reality: Putin's Russian invasion of Ukraine is Wrong. Full Stop.
Day 19 since Russia's bombardment of Ukraine got underway.
Kyiv stills stands.
I am currently staring to wonder if Russia is losing. It was reported today they are asking China for assistance. That seems like a desperate move. Also it was reported yesterday that Russia is finally in "the right mind to negotiate"
The Ukraine government is still purposefully preventing the citizens of Mariupol to exit, because the corridor leads to Russia? I think those citizens would prefer Russia or Belarus, rather than staying without food, water and being surrounded by shelling.
That is really awful, if true.
Russia has agreed to humanitarian corridors, so hopefully it will be honored in that part of Ukraine for people to evacuate

Corridor goes straight to gulag...Ukrainians are not that dumb

Russia will be defaulting on their payments....not looking for them.
That is why they are asking for handouts from Xi
