Russian troops occupy Crimea over the weekend and make international headlines. And on Monday the bottom falls out of the Russian stock market - hard.

100% of financial news outlets must be stupid like me because the two events are repeatedly being linked.

Here's the carnage: http://www.quotenet.com/index/market-movers/MICEX The book says you buy the index (MICEX), btw. There is hope.

the data on that graph was correct, who cares where the image came from? am I talking to a 10 year old here?
You're completely missing the point of that graph. In less than 15min I can throw this shit in Excel or Vizio and blow your mind with new graphics for that chart.

and on your 2nd point...You said that Russia is at war right now and that's why the market collapsed.
Show me what financial outlets are saying that today's market collapse happened because of that war in Ukraine.

as far as I know we're not at war, but of course my knowledge of the current situation could obviously be outdated comparing to yours

Although it was fun to laugh at the crayon dashes, the graphics are the lesser of the giveaway. That graph compares a handful of multiday averages across the breadth of 100 years. It's statistically useless and would never be presented to market participants for short term insight or long term trends. But it certainly could end up in a professor's book.

And the fighting hasn't even started yet.



Your subscription to Pravda isn't doing your brain (or King Mayan's) any favors. Consider cancelling.

even after all this he's gonna pretend that he didn't talk about war


Your little insult about Pravda is weak - no one reads that shit in Russia, besides old timers...but wait, you probably already know that from reading your financial news outlets

few things. don't feel bad, i correct my 8 yr old on his ignorance as well. America, in its greatness and superiority, staffs a military made completely of volunteers. No one is forced to protect this great nation and risk their lives for folks like me and you, whom find meaning in posting on gambling forums.

you never really refuted the bitch part. putin will do whatever he wants. kerry going to kiev, putin must be shittin bricks about now. aslyum to snowden? did you forget that part.

and don't insert rofl shit into your own reply, just reminds us of all this guy:

fukk, my work is never done...

i will avoid a lengthy rebuttal here and simply ask if the Russian stock market is about 231 years behind reality (meaning russia has had troops occupying crimea since at least 1783 and a lease agreement for naval bases that runs through 2017, meaning they were already there)?

So Putin is doing whatever he wants in his region of the world and obama is the bitch

I suggest that you don't be a bitch and go join the military yourself so you can at least back up your "bitch claims" or at least prep your kid to join the military then yell "WAR!!!!!!" when he's an 0311 marine...
