Biden spoke with Ukraine�s Volodymyr Zelensky for a half-hour on Tuesday
March 1, 2022 3:21 pm
Ukrainian president after Biden phone call: �The American leadership on anti-Russian sanctions and defense assistance to Ukraine was discussed. We must stop the aggressor as soon as possible. Thank you for your support!�
President Biden spoke Tuesday with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky for more than 30 minutes, the White House said.
Details on the phone call are expected to be released later in the day.
On Twitter, Zelensky said he had just spoken to Biden: �The American leadership on anti-Russian sanctions and defense assistance to Ukraine was discussed. We must stop the aggressor as soon as possible. Thank you for your support!�
�Nobody will forgive. Nobody will forget,� says Ukraine President Zelensky. �This attack on Kharkiv is a war crime.�
The White House said the pair discussed the U.S.�s �sustained help for Ukraine, including ongoing deliveries of security assistance, economic support and humanitarian aid.�
The two leaders �discussed how the United States, along with Allies and partners, is working to hold Russia accountable, including by imposing sanctions that are already having an impact on the Russian economy,� the White House said.

* Fed Chairman Jerome Powell addresses separate House and Senate panels this week as part of biannual hearings on monetary policy.
* Fears over the Russian invasion of Ukraine have coincided with markets quietly dialing down their expectations for Fed action.
* Powell will have to convince Congress the Fed is doing more to combat inflation at a time when the markets think it will be doing less.
* �The balancing act is going to be difficult,� said Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody�s Analytics.

according to "experts":
'Thousands of people of African descent trying to flee Ukraine to neighboring countries, including Poland, are said to be chased off trains and buses taking refugees to borders, where they are also denied passage. The situation is shocking, but not surprising, according to experts.' :
"We are currently at the Ukraine -Poland border.
Their Police and Army refused to let Africans cross they only allow Ukrainian.
Some have slept here for 2 days under this scorching cold weather, while many have gone back to Lviv."

EUR/USD may have found the bottom
"I guess EUR/USD may fall below 1.1000 in the coming week."
Nobody can say where price is going...the only thing anyone can say for certain is where price has been.
You can sell EUR/USD now at 1.11xx, and it could go to 1.1000 or back to 1.1200. If you look at a daily chart, you could even predict price jumping to 1.1560 in the next few days. It's highly speculative, but quite possible given the price action in the past two months.

There will be multiple attempts to break 1150 and probably 1100, so picking an absolute bottom price level probably won't work too well. The best that you can do is to buy somewhere with a reasonable stop loss, and if the stop loss is breached then make sure you have enough cash in your account so that you can place more trades as time goes on. As price jumps around, there will be plenty of opportunities to place profitable trades...there are lots of traders who share the same sentiment and are buying (just look at the price action).
