'The oligarchs can have zero connection the state and likely be sanctioned purely based on their wealth'

Also untrue, heres old BJ stating how its important that there is clear evidence that they support the regime.

 'Has been EXPLICTLY named by OFAC as a target.'

This is untrue. He was named as an oligarch in 2017 but the US definition of Oligarch on that list was anyone with a net worth of $1bn+.

'The document said inclusion did not mean those named were likely to be sanctioned' https://www.google.com/amp/s/mobile.reuters.com/article/amp/idUSKBN1FJ0K7

The 100ema on hourly chart is one stubborn beatch

Strong resistance at 178 broken. Should go on a run now.

Btw, POG is only 5% down now. They basically said they can't sell anything. I guess there's inherent value in godl regardless of the effects of sanctions.

Thanks tosskosel. Would prefer to see it in writing tbh but appreciate the reply.

Yea the way he's levelled mariupol to effectively make it uninhabitable suggests that may be the aim.

Cleverthoughts is here to offer a balanced view hahahaha

Tosskosel, have you been able to find any info on the other moex shares being admitted to trading?

I just shared the article CT, people can make their own minds up. You're spouting a lot of opinion as if its fact.

This article adds some balance to cleverthoughts speculation http://www.ict-holding.com.cy/media/news/766.html

The reuters list of oligarchs is any Russian with a met worth over a certain amount. Of course there are plenty of sanctioned individuals on there but itching to suggest Nesis will be.

Of course the 2 men will know each other but nothing youve shared here suggests Nesis is involved with the Putin regime.

Ckever thoughts;

But for all his trappings – not least his entourage of four advisers – he is not an oligarch. Rather, he is part of a new breed of Russian businessmen, self-made and in control of his own destiny.

One of the secrets to his success, it would appear, has been keeping a polite distance from the Russian state. Rather than courting favours and running in elections, Nesis prefers to focus on business.

"If you are an independent business and if you don't get involved with government, no problem. If you keep out of the state's way, no problem," he repeats, as if it's a mantra he has articulated many times.

'Nesis is a known associate with Putin'

I haven't found any evidence of this. Can you share any?

Be an awful shame to loose everything.... whatever that means.

(Not so)Clever thoughts, what makes you think Alex Nesis will get sanctioned and why hasn't he already?

Check the daily volime on investing.com. it had over 50k volume at open (its now 67k).

Polyus shares are currently valued at over 12000 rubles. Thats £90 a share. Some of those might have been bought at 9000 rubles which is like £70 a share.

50k in volume at £70 a share is 3.5bn. I think that's the lowest amount that got pulled into it

Polymetal isn't open on the moex yet. Itll come soon though.

Worth noting that Polyus had over £5bn pumped into ot today (55k volume at equivalent £100 a share). I suspect that's Russian stimulus money.

POLYUS, Russian largest gold producer has just went right back to where it was on 22 Feb!!

Lot of Russian commodities bouncing very hard on that moex open.

"When you've been shorting from 1300/1400p you're so deep in the money you can afford to relax...It's a lovely feeling I can assure you."

Wow, there are some absolute scumbags on this board.
