Bloodbath in world markets / The value of the ruble fell by 10%


According to TradeNews, the commodity and financial commodity markets were severely affected by the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the start of the war between the two countries.

Stock markets around the world have all experienced sharp declines. The S&P index fell more than two percent. The Japanese stock market fell 1.4 percent and the Eurostax index fell 3.7 percent.

US Treasury yields fell 12 percentage points to 1.87 percent.

The price of Brent crude oil reached $ 102 a barrel, crossing the $ 100 mark. West Texas Intermediate crude rose about 5 percent to $ 97 a barrel.

The global ounce also continued its upward trend in recent days. Gold, traditionally considered a safe-haven asset, is now trading in the $ 1940 range, at around 2% growth.

The digital currency market is no exception to this rule, and the value of this market has dropped by about 10% in the last 24 hours. Bitcoin is currently trading in the $ 34,000 channel and Atrium in the $ 2,300 channel.

Following these attacks, the value of the Russian ruble also fell sharply. In today’s trading, each dollar was worth 89.89 rubles, which indicates a decrease of about 10 percent against the US dollar.
