From the Washington Post, Vladimir Putin attributes jumpy Russian stock market to the Federal Reserve's pulling funds from the developing to the American market.
Now,
the stock market. As you may know, the stock market was jumpy even
before the situation in Ukraine deteriorated. This is primarily linked
to the policy of the US Federal Reserve, whose recent decisions enhanced
the attractiveness of investing in the US economy and investors began
moving their funds from the developing markets to the American market.
This is a general trend and it has nothing to do with Ukraine. I believe
it was India that suffered most, as well as the other BRICS states.
Russia was hit as well, not as hard as India, but it was. This is the
fundamental reason.
As for the events in Ukraine, politics always
influence the stock market in one way or another. Money likes quiet,
stability and calm. However, I think this is a tactical, temporary
development and a temporary influence.
