After analyzing Russian media for quite some time I believe the conflict in Russia is now over. Putin got what he wanted……a highly strategic and valuable piece of real estate known as Crimea. Plus, both Putin and Russian people see this as a major victory over the West. Given the West’s incredibly weak sanction response, Russia is ready to be done here. While Putin will maintain a high level of Russian troop presence around Ukraine, just in case, he is somewhat reluctant to go into East Ukraine. If things remain as they are, you can consider this conflict over.
The only thing that can escalate the situation further is sanctions that have a bite. Looking at today’s situation, I see very little evidence that either the EU nor the US are willing to go far enough to hit Russia with actual sanctions. However, if they do, you will see an immediate re-escalation of hostilities in Ukraine. At that stage, Putin will be willing to go into Eastern Ukraine to show his dominance.
In terms of the stock market, this geopolitical issue will not impact the markets over the long terms. While we might see some short-term volatility associated with Russia’s action, over the long-term Ukraine becomes irrelevant. The Bear Market of 2014-2017 will start shortly, ushering in much lover prices over the next few years.
