    They’ll just suspend trading again, likely until trump lifts sanctions. Value can’t fall if it can’t be compared in the market.

    They’ll catch up over the next few months as we see a sharp decline in the value of the US dollar and Trump ending sanctions against them.

      A couple people are saying things like that in this thread. Obviously not everyone is an economics expert. This really started crashing like 2 weeks ago, and they are very near a point of no return. What I’m saying is, they don’t have months. This is kind of already game over.

        Hasn’t the russian central bank closed all foreign currency transactions? That was what I understood (source Joe blogs).

    It happened in 2022 and bounced back to 2 cents in just weeks. Trump comes back in weeks, I can see things looking better for Russia with Trump’s presidency. I might be wrong, maybe the whole world is going to shit with Trump.

      It’s probably not anything that recently changed. Economies are like rubber bands. They can stretch and run for a while in a deficit or without having proper upside cash flow while in a wartime economy, but eventually all of that has to come back. Russia has just had compounding economic problems (because they’re stupid) and now the hurting is starting to add up.

        I was referring to the “no longer” bit. You have to go a very long way back to see a significant change. They were already in a very deep hole. They are just continuing to dig.
