Or not trading given Moscow is closed.

Agreed too much panic …. Company will likely delist from UK and fully list in Russia or China so people will be in the same boat with Evraz as they were with the coal assets trading in Moscow ….

If there shares are suspended .... what are the chances they come back on line after the worst of the war is over?

He can't sell the shares ... reduces free float.

I only have a few quid in here and 50% of it is profit ...... but this share does deal directly with Moscow stock exchange and so when it opens, it will still be able to do so, I assume.

Russians fall back on hard currency when the rouble falters so I do wonder if people are not judging Russia by the rules that apply in their own society, and fail to appreciate how Russia society rumbles on and functions when the rouble struggles?

Just to be clear .... I take the view that sanctions hurt all peoples .. and would rather NATO freed the skies in Ukraine.

Indeed dropping …. Bailed at 168 ….

Risk of China invading Taiwan is my guess as to why the premium to HFEL has been chipped off ....

... it's a real risk.

Looks to be trading well below NAV .... unusual ... grabbed a bunch more.

"There are also some reports that the SPA between ExxonMobil and Seplat Energy has been terminated. Seplat Energy confirms that no event of termination has occurred, and the SPA remains valid and subsisting."

Probably explains the drop .... someone is being a very naughty boy.

;)

Brave of Kazakhstan …. Good for them.

Quick sale 107p ... easy money .. kept the shares .... will pay next week's heating bill.

GLA

;)

Well .. bought more back .... can't resist.

" fully aware of the risks of Nigeria, factored in;, which frankly in current times is looking like the epitomy of stability"

Agreed ... think I made the same point a few days ago ... with regret.

Sold a bunch yesterday at 114 bought 'em back today at 119.

Fundamentals go out of the window in war times.

C'mon Ukraine .... May "God" be with you ... He sure as heck will be more use than NATO.

Monday? Suggests the crisis will be over by then.

"Russian businessman places $1m bounty on Vladimir Putin’s head"

This is what we want to read.

"There is *no way* that Putin will allow a British compoany to continue holding those."

You are assuming that Putin will stay in Power.

"Evraz could get Sanctions" .... Having delisted its coal assets ... it might turn out to have been a good move.

Abramovich's daughter came out against the Russian invasion .... and if Abramovich did the same I would guess he would be on Putin's hit list ....

He would have made a lot of money out of Highland Gold ... and is listed as an Isreali citizen ...

.... so I think it fair to ask how much is politics of envy in the case of Abramovich.

Grabbed a few ..... this morning.

"really hoping for a breakthrough ceasefire" - But Ukraine is now in an invidious position. To control so many angry people as you point out, will require a brutal regime the likes of which we have never seen.

Damned is they carry on fighting damned if they don't ....

"The only thing Putin has done wrong is he didn't do this in the 90's"

Rubbish ..... The underlying thesis is that Ukraine does not exist as an independent country according to Putin ... see his essay from last year.

Polymetal just announced its dividend today ..... smart move.

I recollect FXPO having a problem with its major shareholder losing money in a Ukranian bank he owned .. share went down to 12p early 2016 ... I'd bailed around 50p and hit 500 last year.

Decided to avoid Oligarch owned companies from that point .... and had 200,000 shares in HMG at at 45p average or thereabouts ..... that I sold .. got taken out at 300p.

These things are volatile .... wait for the RNS.
