Russia Crashing - Joe Blogs
Russia’s stock market has been falling steadily since February, wiping billions off company valuations and shaking investor confidence. But this isn’t part of a global downturn – in fact, the U.S. market has continued rising over the same period. So what changed?
In this video, we break down:
• Why February was the turning point
• How the war economy has started to hit structural limits
• The impact of weaker oil revenues
• Why sanctions are now causing long-term damage
• And the growing fear around ownership rights and forced state extraction
This is not just a correction.
This is confidence breaking in the Russian economy.
