Putin is getting desperate and is likely to use a tactical nuke soon to gain an edge. He will lose the war otherwise. Will a single tactical nuke detonation tank markets, or is this priced in?
>>62442844It will tank crypto, except for BTC, DOGE and QNT
>>62442844Tank markets are falling in price already due to drones being easier to launch at your enemies from above instead of being stuck on the ground and heavy as shit

>>62442844Is the Ukranians winning in the room with you?>thinks a few rafineries are enough to win the war
He won't? Ask yourself why he hasnt done this already. Its been like 4 and a half years, they have thousands of nukes, they are getting stalemated and pressured. Many causalities, people getting angry that a despot leader is going on a suicidal vanity mission to restore the USSR which is becoming increasingly unlikely to be achieved.The reason he hasnt done it yet is because he will have been told in private, in no uncertain terms, that if he uses a 'tactical nuke' then the precedent is set for one to be used against them. What even is a tactical nuke anyway? Blow one up in a remote area to show force? a non nuclear ballistic missile can achieve the objective anyway. So why do the show of force if using one means youll get one dropped on your own country at some point anyway.The reason it wont happen because its still a nuke, and it will still ensure MAD.
>>62442844If he does that then the rest of the world will dogpile him.
>>62442844unironically could see it happening out of frustration, like a surrender the donbas or we'll tactical nuke kyiv oncesure it wont be good but if hes now even losing ground he will eventually run out of options
Assuming he still has functional nukes. Nuclear weapons require maintenance to stay in working order and dud out if some of the radioactive guts with short half lives aren't swapped out every decade or so. The rest of the Russian arsenal is rusted crap, you think the nuclear stockpile is in better shape.
>>62442909>everything i don't like is jewishWhat is truly astonishing is that this is what passes for deep thought among zoomers
>>62442844nah this would allow ukraine to use chemical weapons and then moscow would get auschwitzed.
>>62443354>source: my ass
Imagine Muscovy has functioning nukesThey're already a gas station with no gas
>>62443365once a war goes nuclear, everything is allowed. and if you think that zelensky didn't stash enough gas bombs to revenge a nuclear strike then you underestimate how corrupt and rotten this country is.
>>62442844What would be the point in dropping nukes on Ukraine? The funding, the satellite intel, the satellite datalinks, the GPS navigation, the hard-to-manufacture parts used in the drones and missiles - these things all come from outside Ukraine.The question you should be asking is, what would be the market reaction to nukes dropped on Poland, Romania, Denmark, etc?
>>62443366The nuclear industry is actually one of the few industries that Russia leads the world in
>>62442941If Russia demonstrates it has working nukes and that it's willing to use them, it should make countries less likely to attack Russia, not more.
>>62442938>Ask yourself why he hasnt done this alreadyBecause it hasn't been necessary so far? The difference now, compared to the previous 4.5 years, is that the missile-attacks-by-proxy on Russia are getting out of hand
Russia depends on countries like China to tolerate them. If they lose the support of their fellow autocrat pals, they're done. And say what you want about China but they are very opposed to using nukes aggressively. They would not accept it.
>>62443487>it should make countries less likely to attack Russia, not more.Overt attacks, yes, but you can be sure that covert assassination attempts against Putin would ramp the fuck up and not stop until he and everyone who supported his decision to use nukes are dead and buried.
