Goldilocks and Seeds of Wisdom
It looks like lines have been drawn in the sand between Russia and the US regarding sanctions on Russia’s Arctic LNG 2 project. This project is a huge money maker for Russia and a lifeline for its economic stability in Global Trade. Russia has warned the US that it would do everything possible to keep sanctions on this project from happening. We are at a crossroads.
Escalated tensions such as these have the tendency to raise the price of oil and other Commodities in the markets. Price distortions emerge in situations such as these creating incredible volatility inside a market. Alliances are formed and trade relations are often altered. Look for many stressors to begin hitting the market.
The stressors often shift price correlations. In this case, it has the potential to move our stocks into real values along with commodity prices going to their actual values.
This conflict has the potential to move our Market into a commodity-driven economic system that will be a catalyst for taking us into the new Digital Economy based on tokenized assets backed by Commodities of real value.
