Here or in Russia?
Anywhere.
If I have a Billion dollars to spend but there is no place to spend it or where there is an open market I don’t need what they’re selling, is it still worth a Billion dollars?
Russia’s currency took a nice jump.
Now, they have more bang for their Ruble.
But where? They’re cut off.
Their Ruble can be worth more than gold and it means very little if they have no place to use it.
