Your comments are correct.

The sad thing is that all of this is manipulation by The Street.  The first salvo is what we saw WRT oil prices on Friday.  What is going is nothing short of mathematical game theory.  Migraine IMHO was wise to take some profits on half of his options positions.

The reality of whether Russia invades or not is the following...

1....on the energy front, an invasion by Russia will have zero effect on whether OPEC produces the same amount of oil as before.  The threatened sanctions on Russia concerning Nordstream 2 will have no material effect on the energy balance since Nordstream 2 is not shipping any gas to Europe as we speak.

2....an invasion of The Ukraine by Russia will have zero effect on the profits of American and Canadian companies and a limited extent to European companies and so it will have a small effect their bottom lines and hence their SPs

3....The Street will foster this hysteria while their trading floors are going the other way and will make money.  There is no doubt based on my experience of working in the industry that the big plsyers sold before they took the market down on Firday.  Smart investors realize this and take their lead by going contrarian and taking their cue from the pros.  In this vein, I increased my cash position on Friday morning to take advantage of SPs on sale if The Street is successful in their strategy.  if they are not sucessful then if will take my lumps with them.
