Does Putin Change Anything?

I am taking the position that the main thing Putin adds to the mix is a little more volatility. What I said in last Friday’s blog holds for now.

But in a Deeper Sense..

This could be Putin’s Swan Song. All the talk so far is about why Putin’s initiative is a big negative to the world economy and world markets.

It Could be the Opposite..

Ex-President Trump it must be remembered, did his best to elevate Putin and Putin no doubt feels he is the world’s toughest guy. On the other-hand, the current situation may be enough to show the world that enough is enough and put him in his place. This is Biden’s chance to seal the 2024 election for the Democrats. Let’s see what he does. This is Hammer Time.
