Potential Russia-Ukraine conflict to keep markets moving

FOMC minutes and CBRT rate decision later this week
European futures markets point to a much lower opening of today's cash session on the Old Continent. DAX futures currently trade around 300 points below Friday's cash close. Moods deteriorated late on Friday on reports saying that Russian may invade Ukraine as soon as this week. Talks between Western leaders and Russian authorities are held almost on a daily basis now. Economic calendar for today is empty but news on Russia-Ukraine are likely to keep markets moving. Investors should be aware that prices are very vulnerable to swing on news headlines nowadays.
