Only for 1 month but this caught me off guard, nothing about this on the work radio news segments. This is more strategic energy related than commodity but hey. This shows even during war and the rhetoric of all sides that there is pragmatism to be found. I believe a Dutch gold company sought and received an exemption carve out so they could sell their wares to Russians still. My point is a lot of noise is generated by sanctions but the reality is the cogs of commerce continue to turn.
Myself if not for being a wage cager on the cusp of finally moving out, I'd be buying the bejesus out of POLY, EUA, POG, Evrav pre suspension, AMC. Basically all of the Russian exposed stocks that have had their wind stolen by geopolitical machinations. As is I'll be grateful for what I have gotten hitherto and simply await recovery be it through raw fundamentals, wider apathy re Ukraine, ceasefire, peace, victory. Whatever. I'm a patient soul.
