Tuesday extended Monday’s losses as Russia’s barbaric invasion of Ukraine raged on. The price of WTI crude oil soared over 10% to shatter $100 a barrel for the first time since 2014. Meanwhile, other asset classes sank. The S&P closed -1.55%, the Nasdaq -1.59% and the Dow -1.76%.
Financials were especially hard hit as the Bank of America sank 3.91% and American Express tumbled 8.47%. Industrials also suffered as Boeing fell 5% and Honeywell lost 3.27%. Energy names, of course, rallied, including Chevron by nearly 4% as well as defence stocks such as Lockheed Martin climbing 5.26%. Retail continued its streak as Target jumped nearly 10%. While gold inched up to $1,940 an ounce, Bitcoin leapt over 5% to $44,000. Even though a rate hike is all but assured, the U.S. 10-year yield fell to 1.721%.
Oil’s outsized gains cushioned the TSX’s decline to -0.58%. WCS rocketed by 11.5% to approach $94 a barrel.
