Putin, the never ending trickster, got you all flat-footed again.
President Putin has ordered troops sent last week to a surprise military exercise in western and central Russia to return to their bases.
Putin ordered the return after a Defense Ministry report, which said the exercises have been conducted successfully, presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov told the media.
The surprise military drills in Russia’s central and western territorial commands were launched last Wednesday.
They involved 150,000 troops, 90 aircraft, 880 armor, 80 warships and other hardware.
On Monday the last phase of the drill was witnessed by Putin, who visited the Kirillovsk military range in Leningrad region in north-western Russia.
See, it was just a game. Back to your regularly scheduled bull market. S&P futs are +12.

Buy $RSX and anything else Russian that cratered today?
I’d buy other stuff instead.
Thanxs. Understand the apprehension to need to get involved with the straight Russian play. Just those eurotrash plays went ape shit higher a couple years ago when the world decided to not stop using olive oil and Greece was back in a big way.
America is the root of all terror. America has invaded sixty countries since world war 2.
In 1953 America overthrow Iran’s democratic government Mohammad Mosaddegh and installed a brutal dictator Shah. America helped Shah of Iran to establish secret police and killed thousands of Iranian people.
During Iran-Iraq war evil America supported Suddam Hossain and killed millions of Iranian people. In 1989, America, is the only country ever, shot down Iran’s civilian air plane, killing 290 people.
In 2003,America invaded Iraq and killed 1,000,000+ innocent Iraqi people and 4,000,000+ Iraqi people were displaced.
Germany started it
Germany started what? I thought you knew history …
Military industrial complex. Quit hating on the empire, else find your house droned out.
America is hardly the ‘root’ .. it’s just that we do it better than anyone else
Hey ‘superb’, if you hate the USA so much then why don’t you go live with your buddies in Iran? We won’t miss ya.
Excellent pic and title. Just excellent. Lmfao.
He’s laughing at the world news as he pitches his shot glass into the fire.
exactly … Putin had his KGB trader cash in on his 22k RSX puts puchased for 30 cents on Jan 30 for a 500% gain … and yesterday before the close he shorted 48k RSX Mar 21 puts for 40-50 cents .
Weak bounce in the DAX so far. Someone get those fools a kraut dog without grey poupon.
Looks like ole man buffet was right again…carry on.
