    Why is there a war?
    - every one seems to ignor this

    Same as every other war, oil or resources

    - yes used to be part of USSR

    - Putin wants to control Europe, extracting ( similar to major canola processors exporters) maxium margins plus 10% for Russia for oil and gas infrastructure and mining infrastructure and pipelines that lead to NATO European countries

    The USA, Nato etc are letting Putin take Ukraine, so he will.
    At a minimum he will squeeze Ukraine economically- throw in all the corruption Europe will be held hostage

    Unbelievable planes haven't flown over the tanks lines up on the road ways to drop a few bombs or launch a few missles ( seems a little Treaudo (skippy) esk)

    Also read that ave Ukraine income 8 or 900 month, vs India at about 1,100. I would not have guessed that

      That is precisely what I was thinking. When you see the pictures of these tanks nicely lined up barely crawling for 40 km, I’ve been wondering why the Ukrainians are sitting in Kyiv waiting for them and not attacking the tanks enroute. They said on the radio that a molotov cocktail can take out a tank. Planes with bombs could also destroy them. You would think that with the slow movement, the tanks are sitting ducks. I don’t know a thing about wartime maneuvers but just hoping the Uks can turn Putin around.

        Ukraine also very corrupt

        Putin buys off Ukraine prime minister, then re instates him? Or others?

          Doesn't seem to be any shortage of people paying 30- 40 % more than 2 yrs ago for toys, trucks,cars ,houses and land. Only shortage of poor salesmen, rest getting very rich making fools part with the money.

            Blew through the $100 oil that was considered a stretch.

            Commodities all rocketing.

            BOC up 1/4%. First increase since 2018.

            Average Joe incomes/wages not much movement yet. That has to change.
            Can't keep living the same.

            Government spent all the money and are killing our oil and gas exports.

            How much less will you get per you buck?

                Mass credit defaults may have-a-way of correcting inflationary pressures without any help from central bankers. Incoming real estate setback will be an awakening . . . .

                  Real estate is a fairly broad term.
                  Are you forecasting this across all sectors, or just housing, just commercial/industrial? What about farmland?
                  Demand destruction aside, recent events are bullish commodities for more than a short term, I tended to think real estate will be a real case of The haves and have nots for the next few years.

                    Capital destruction in Russian equities this week is the most amazing market collapse I’ve seen in my career.

                        Investors are now racing into the U.S. dollar as a safe-haven investment.

                        Gold prices have firmed this past month, but remain vulnerable to sudden, harsh sell-offs. The same can be said for cryptos.

                        Gold has proven it can’t hold any rallies very long. Maybe gold may take a run at $2,000, but $1,800 may be in-the-gunsight once again.

                        When push comes to shove, investors still tend to flock toward the USD in times of global uncertainty.

                            In my view, economies now entering a fast-moving stagflation period, then there is risk of a deflationary depression. History repeats itself . . . .

                                Central bankers are lost. There is no more manipulation that can resuscitate the economy. And then U.S. bankers now suggesting 7 to 11 rate hikes over the next year. And $185 oil price projections. Which economic school taught this math?

                                Interest rates hike em, drop ‘em, doesn’t much matter anymore. Apologies for being so cynical . . . .
