Hi stonk, i think i get some of what you are saying, and for sure if there are concerns in the market about whether or not asset sale proceeds could subsequently legally leave russia to pay shareholders etc, then that would affect s/p. (? presumably though, if the rampers are right that peace in ukraine is imminent, then that would also mean that rampers would be assuming such problems moving money in/out russia would dissipate soon too?)
but to me, that still wouldn’t explain why EUA share price is so dismal, even if one adopted the rampy view that all those lovely positive things about EUA are true [ - for the avoidance of doubt, i’m saying that simply for the sake of discussion about ramper PoV; e.g. i do *not* believe myself that EUA own billions of valuable mineral assets, nor do i think that sanctions on russia etc are going to be lifted anytime soon - ]. that’s because if it’s a binary issue, i.e. whether or not putin would allow asset sale funds to leave russia, then professional market participants / institutions would tend to approach that by assigning percentage likelihoods on that yes/no question, and use that to weight how much they will pay for EUA shares now, rather than simply say that they can’t currently invest in EUA share because they don’t yet know the answer to that question.
