Kyiv appeared to blame Russia for a cyberattack on Tuesday as US President Joe Biden warned that more than 150,000 Russian troops were still amassed near Ukraine’s borders after Moscow’s announcement of a partial pullback was met with skepticism. World powers are engaged in one of the deepest crises in East-West relations for decades, jostling over post-Cold War influence and energy supplies as Moscow wants to stop the former Soviet neighbor ever joining the NATO military alliance. Western nations have suggested arms control and confidence-building steps to defuse the standoff, which has prompted them to urge their citizens to leave Ukraine because an attack could come at any time. Russia denies it has any plans to invade. Must Read Biden to Putin: Ukraine invasion means ‘needless death and destruction’ On Tuesday, the Russian defence ministry published footage to demonstrate it was returning some troops to base after exercises. Biden said the United States had not verified the move. “Our analysts indicate that they remain very much in a threatening position.” Hours after Moscow’s announcement, Ukraine said the online networks of its defense ministry and two banks were overwhelmed in what is called a distributed denial-of-service attack.

The Zombification Of The Economy Via SchiffGold.com, Another hotter than expected CPI print in January put even more pressure on the Federal Reserve to do something about inflation. Suddenly, there is talk of a 50 basis point interest rate hike at the next FOMC meeting. But “doing something” is easier said than done, particularly in this zombie economy. The Fed has gotten itself into a tight spot . Raising rates will expose another major economic problem that lurks just under the surface. The world is buried in debt. Economist Daniel Fernández Méndez described the 21st century as the “decade of debt.” "And if things continue the way they are, it could well be called the century of the great debt default.” We’ve talked a lot about the massive levels of debt piled up by the federal government during the pandemic. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg. In 2021, US consumer debt grew at the fastest pace in five years . And then we have corporate debt and the proliferation of “zombie companies.” Could this lead to a “Minsky Moment” — the point at which it becomes impossible for debtors to pay off their debts?

At no point in Nigeria’s history, since the discovery of oil, has a rally in oil prices failed to resonate with foreign investors until now, but that’s what you get when you are the world’s most inefficient spender. Africa’s top oil producer is increasingly becoming less of an oil economy and more of one that will continue to struggle irrespective of rising oil prices due to an ever-growing petrol subsidy bill that has wiped out the gains of the oil price. BusinessDay, in a detailed analysis Tuesday, demonstrated how even a $100 per barrel oil price will mean nothing for Nigeria, whose external reserves, currency, and government revenues are declining despite higher oil prices. The trend has now extended to the country’s Eurobonds. The yields on eight of 13 Nigerian Eurobonds have jumped this year, a sign of increased risk perception by investors. The price of the last Eurobond issued is down by a record 12 percent, according to data from the trading platform, FMDQ, while the yield has jumped to 10 percent from 8 percent when it was first issued in September.
