Since October 2021, the MOEX, Moscow Stock Exchange, began a clear decline with some recovery attempts that did not prosper in the atmosphere of fear due to the start of a war promoted by Putin against neighboring Ukraine.

On Monday, February 21, when the invasion was perceived as imminent, the fall was quite pronounced, and the collapse was clear on February 24, one day after the invasion began.

We can appreciate the high volatility that the MOEX suffered, due to the invasion and the sanctions imposed by Russia as a result of it, which led to its closure until further notice.
