Sanctions on Russia are causing ripple effects everywhere
Summary: Today's equity update touches on the EU's new plan to issue joint bonds to fund massive investments in energy and defence adding further short-term tailwind for Europe's oil and gas industry. The sanctions against Russia are causing all sorts of unintended consequences and ripple effects with the nickel market yesterday jumping in a spectacular way due to a massive short squeeze. The rapid rise in nickel and also lithium carbonate prices are putting enormous pressure on electric vehicle makers such as Tesla.
There is little on the economic Agenda today so all focus will be on Ukraine and the overall fallout of the sanctions that are evolving.
Remain cautious and careful in your position sizes.
