good one, lets ban something we never get in our wharehouse anyway, OMG

"Neither Nornickel nor Rusal send any of their metal to UK warehouses," an industry source said.

Britain has two approved locations for LME warehouses, in Hull and Liverpool, but they have very little metal. None of the four metals being suspended are currently being stored in British LME warehouses, LME data shows.

All the leaders of USA, UKRAINE, NATO COUNTRIES and RUSSIA are an absolute disgrace to humanity, they are all to blame for this and they all have blood on their hands and lots of it. utter scum bags, the lot of them

Sanctions lifted on withdraw looks on the cards

https://www.reuters.com/world/uk/uk-says-russian-sanctions-could-be-lifted-with-ukraine-withdrawal-report-2022-03-26/

wonder if there is a path for them to EU membership if most sanctions are lifted

bond holders will be the losers, they are trying to pay the money but the system wont allow the payment to go through in dollars due to sanctions, they still have 30 days extension to pay in dollars or then it counts as a default but its a forced default rather than a real default, uncharted waters indeed

the asset seize threat was only to companies that had chosen to leave Russia,

this threat was made so they could keep the businesses open and suply chains going to save jobs, they also said the seizure would be temoprary until the companies return

so this is nothing close to the rubbish being spouted on here by some,

i just heard on bloomberg that putin just made comments that Ukraine are not serious about a deal,
its hard to know what to believe

i was trying to work it out myself, if the 90m is what they paid for the shares then there is a good chance it would be much less than 35m shares to shed, many would have been invested a while so it could be as low as 18m shares in total was the number i ended up with or somewhere between that and your 35m, not ideal but not disaster by any stretch, and if there is a peace deal then crazy times ahead,

do they even have to sell the shares ? i was thinking as long as they are removed from the index with zero value on the index then perhaps the shares can still be held by each company and traded or held outwith the index. im trying to check that one out

https://www.newstatesman.com/world/europe/ukraine/2022/03/could-zelensky-and-putin-agree-a-ukraine-peace-deal

Zelensky has said that he will “consider” discussing the status of Crimea and the unrecognised republics. In the same remarks, he added that he had become disillusioned with Nato, noting that the alliance was clearly not in a hurry to admit Ukraine any time soon. If both sides are sincere, the contours of a deal are there.

people are not understanding what this means, it is moving to the ftse 250 and being removed from indicies, it is not being de listed from the stock exchange and it will trade as normal if you have a decent broker, its not the end of the world to be out of indicies, when the dust settles large speculators will move in especially on news of any peace deal,
the sp should start to recover a decent amount quite soon

i get the frustration Gazala69, i think we all agree with what you say here but it is also true to say that all of the leaders involved are liars and they are all to blame for this shocking state of affairs, i still want to have some hope that these utterly despicable human beings come up with something that puts and end to this fiasco

GLA

If there is a deal done i think he will offer to pay for re construction in part as compensation to ukraine, but he will say he can only afford that if a decent amount of the sanctions are lifted and in the interest of improving relations and global peace and stability he will also offer talks on arms control, the west will look stupid if they dont go for that

DP,
Putin cant touch shares of uk companies listed soley in Lonon, if he got desperate he could only mess with shares in companies with there principal or sole listing on Moex, those that are invested in by some index funds,

what sort of person are you that you would come back and laugh if it happened, jeez

Reported

Further in the article it also says this,

The Chancellor met business leaders last week to discuss UK investment in Russia and has welcomed consensus on the need to economically isolate Mr Putin and those close to him, the Treasury said.

It said the Government recognises that winding down Russian investments may be a long-term process for some firms due to market conditions and the ability to sell assets when sanctions have been placed on the Russian economy.

The Treasury added that the Government will do what it can to support businesses that want to divest.

That would make any suspension very unlikely especially as we are selling assets anyway,

hopefully there is a peace deal struck this week and if not we can hopefully still get this asset sale done and the board can consider future options and investments from there,

that last paragraph is vitally important for us as our government is allowing companies time to sell assets,

slater you just said

"Russia economically just isn't that important to the world anymore, strip away holding Europe to ransom with gas and there just isn't much else there"

YOU ARE VERY VERY WRONG

they supply 10% of the global nickel perhaps you should check the nickel price today
they supply vast amounts of paladium, gold, copper and silver, all base metals required for the green transition, they are more important than ever for that reason

you must living on fantasy island
