Crude oil prices shot above USD 120 a barrel for the first time in nine years on Thursday before retreating a little to USD 111 on Friday, but the gulf between cost and retail rates has only widened

By Joori Roh SEOUL (Reuters) – South Korea’s consumer inflation hovered near a decade high in February and stood above the central bank’s 2% target for an 11th month, adding pressure on policymakers to raise interest rates amid surging oil prices due to the Russia-Ukraine crisis.

Russia''s invasion of Ukraine adds uncertainty to the U.S. economic outlook and may boost near-term inflation, but household savings and strong economic growth should help limit the damage, New York Federal Reserve Bank President John Williams said on Thursday. Higher oil prices stemming from the crisis may act like a "tax" on American consumers that limits spending, but savings accumulated during the pandemic may help offset higher costs, Williams said. "The economy is coming into this with a lot of forward momentum," Williams said during a virtual event organized by the Council for Economic Education.

WASHINGTON : Russia''s war in Ukraine could hit the US economy across a variety of channels from higher prices to dampened spending and investment, Federal Reserve (Fed) chair Jerome Powell said yesterday, though it is unclear what the ultimate impact will be. “What we know so far is that commodity prices have moved up significantly, energy prices in particular. That is going to work its way through our US economy,” in the form of higher inflation at least in the short term, Powell told the Senate Banking Committee. “In addition we could see risk sentiment decline so you could see lower investment. You could see people hold back on spending. It is hard to see what the effect on both supply and demand will be.” Powell repeated his prepared remarks from Wednesday to a House of Representatives committee whose members also focused on the Russian invasion of neighbouring Ukraine. The conflict has triggered broad financial and other sanctions against Russia. Powell said that the Fed was watching the situation carefully and had begun running simulations, for example, on what persistent increases in oil prices might have on the economy.

Washington DC, USA – The United States on Thursday, March 3, imposed sanctions against Russian oligarchs as it targeted Russia’s super-rich and others close to President Vladimir Putin, further ratcheting up financial pressure over Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine. The United States imposed full blocking sanctions on eight oligarchs and officials, including Russian tycoon Alisher Usmanov, taking aim at those who have amassed fortunes and political influence through their connections to Putin. “We want (Putin) to feel the squeeze, we want the people around him to feel the squeeze,” White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki told reporters on Thursday. The sanctions are the latest in a series announced by Washington, including against Putin and Russia’s central bank, after Russian forces invaded Ukraine in the biggest assault on a European state since World War Two. Moscow calls the assault a “special operation.” Washington imposed sanctions on Usmanov, founder of Russian mining company Metalloinvest, whom the White House described as a “one of Russia’s wealthiest individuals and a close ally of Putin.” The sanctions block his property from use in the United States and by US persons, including his luxury yacht, which the White House said was seized by Germany, and his private jet.
