War: Bigger Inflation & Recession Shocks, Rate-Hikes Are Smaller Authored by Patrick Hill via RealInvestmentAdvice.com, (The Ukraine War) “means a bigger inflation shock, a smaller rates shock, and a bigger recession shock.” - Bank of America Corp. chief strategist Michael Hartnett, 3-4-22 The war triggers a huge surge in oil prices, consumer sentiment is already falling, and the Fed is likely to raise rates slowly because of the war. We examine how: economic sanctions can cause inflation during wartime, consumer sentiment declining, real retail sales under pressure, GDP is weakening, and a unique oil price ratio to 10 – 2-year bond spread indicates a coming recession. Severe Economic Sanctions Against Russia Enacted After weeks of planning, as the Russian forces massed on the Ukraine border, it became evident to Western leaders that they must act. During the first few days of the war, the European Union and the U.S. set in motion economic sanctions, including freezing significant oligarch assets in western banks, including Vladimir Putin’s assets, freezing four important Russian bank assets in the west, and cutting off Russian access to the inter-banking SWIFT system.

The invasion of Ukraine has placed Russia on the verge of bankruptcy. Interest rates have doubled, the stock market has closed, and the rouble has fallen to its lowest level ever. The military costs of war have been exacerbated by an unprecedented level of international sanctions, sustained by a large coalition of countries. Russian citizens, now unable to spend at IKEA, McDonald''s or Starbucks, are not allowed to convert any of the money they do have into foreign currency. Generous estimates suggest the Russian economy could shrink by 7% next year, instead of the 2% growth that was forecast before the invasion. Others say the drop could be as much as 15%. Such a fall would be bigger than the 1998 crash of the Russian stock markets - a major shock to an economy which has hardly seen any growth in the last decade, and failed to diversify away from exporting oil and gas. Meanwhile the European Union is planning to drastically decrease its energy dependency on Russia, while the the US and the UK have begun to phase out their own, more limited, imports.
