If this war were to end tomorrow, the stock market would explode. What stock would you buy?
I'd be leaning toward Twitter at the moment...
I don't see this as much progress except that a willingness to talk is inherently progress of a sort. But clearly Russia wants to (1) keep the Donbass region, and (2) keep Crimea as well. Ukraine wants to retain the former and recover the latter. Unless one side or the other is willing to settle for one and release the other to the opposition I don't see much of a compromise possible, and of course in the view of supporters of both sides, no such compromise is morally justifiable in any case. Ergo an impasse that is going to be difficult to resolve. For now.

I made profits on Energy and Agriculture stocks when Russia invaded. I would put a trailing stop on these stocks that I own as the run-up came as a result of the war.
I believe that Travel stocks could benefit from a cease-fire that reopens air and sea travel routes blocked by the conflict.
