This is going to hurt Russia economically. The Russian stock market is once again under heavy selling pressure. The MOEX Index has fallen below the 2,000-point mark, reaching its lowest level since 2022. Investors are reacting to a combination of geopolitical risks, ongoing sanctions, a weakening economic outlook, and continued capital outflows. The chart shows that after a brief recovery in 2023–2024, the market has clearly resumed its downward trend. For Russia’s economy, this is another sign of declining investor confidence and mounting pressure on its financial system.
