I checked one of the "website down" checks. "~1 day 10 hours Down For:Moex.com is DOWN for everyone. It is not just you. The server is not responding..."

Surprising to see some of the Trumpiest TX politicians supporting Ukraine.

That overstates the case. The Russian invasion forces were staged in one of the "Also Not Russia"s and rolled into Ukraine from there. I don't think "Also Not Russia" had a lot of say. (Yes I'm nervous wreck.)

If IKEA sends weapons, at least they will be heavy weapons. They could just drop some of their bookcases on Moscow. They'd surrender pretty quick.

Conflicting reports about the time MOEX is expected to open; some say a decision will be taken at 13:00 Moscow time, some that it will open at 15:00, some that some trading was due to start at 10:00; others that Forex is / will continue to be suspended…

Russia's central bank said Monday that the Moscow Exchange wouldn't open for stock trading, the latest move to contain the financial fallout from President Vladimir Putin’s decision to invade Ukraine.

It also said derivatives markets would remain closed. The central bank added that the operating hours of the exchange would be announced Tuesday morning.
