Biden announces a "major decision" against Russia! U.S. stocks plunged again, and Apple and Tesla fell sharply

As soon as Putin said that progress had been made in the talks, the stock market was again hit by bearish news released by Biden...

Biden officially announced a new policy of sanctioning Russia, including the abolition of "most-favored-nation treatment" for Russia. This means that the normal trade relations between the United States and Russia will end, and even some media interpretations say that the door to "destructive taxation" has been opened!

The originally rising U.S. stock market also plunged heavily because of this news, and the Dow once dived 600 points intraday.

Technology stocks also fell sharply, apple and Tesla fell 670 billion. Social giant Meta has also been involved, not only criminally filed in Russia, but also may be defined as an "extremist organization".

Chinese stocks continued Thursday's downward momentum, with some companies already cutting their stock prices in two days.

Biden officially announced

The most-favored-nation treatment of Russia will be abolished

On Friday, Eastern Time, the United States announced new measures to sanction Russia.

Among them, the measure to abolish the permanent normal trade relations treatment (i.e. "most-favored-nation treatment") to Russia is the most hotly discussed.

According to CCTV, on March 11, local time, US President Joe Biden delivered a speech at the White House, announcing the adoption of new sanctions against Russia, focusing on the abolition of PNTR treatment, that is, "most-favored-nation treatment", with the Group of Seven and MEMBERS of the European Union. In addition to the sanctions already imposed on Russia, the United States will also increase tariffs on goods imported from Russia.

The bill is expected to be voted on as early as next week in both houses of Congress.

On March 8, local time, Biden announced sanctions against Russia's energy sector, including the United States will ban the import of oil, gas and coal from Russia.

According to China News Network, Biden will push for the end of normal trade relations with Russia. The report also pointed out that after this decision takes effect, it may open the door to the "destructive taxation" of the United States on Russia.

The World Trade Organization provides for equal MFN status for all members. But the "national security exception" clause in the WTO's multilateral trade rules gives members discretion to protect their "fundamental security interests" by taking measures such as eliminating most-favoured-nation treatment in trade.

Under the influence of this news, the market is worried about the limited supply of crude oil, and international oil prices have also risen.
