Does anyone think the end of the war in Ukraine will bring a global, if not rally, little bump/stop of the slide? I suspect much of the pessimism is linked to the war.

Depends. It will remove the driving inflation factors (mainly energy) so it might on a fundamental level. But if the drivers on the market (fed/institutional investors) are bearish, the market will remain bearish. If peace is declared, we might see a bull trap.

I think we will see a slide towards at least precovid levels as loaned money is removed from the market, and a general, but not dramatic, recession (perhaps autumn—>1-2 years).

I don’t think that peace in Ukraine will lead to removed sanctions (etc) very fast either unless the Russian government completely collapses.

Sanction removal is not going to lead companies to reinvest in Russia. Companies probably decided the risk isn’t worth the marginal gain.

Will be interesting to watch this winter as Germany turns into smog central for the coal. My wife’s family there are anti-nuclear, against ****-economicus, scared to have kids due to climate, but at the same time heat their home with wood. People in the Us don’t understand the mentality but given I work with people all over the globe, I hear it from coworkers on different continents.

No clue what is going to happen so I keep saving the same while enjoying life.
