The Russian stock market collapsed after news and rumors about a new phase of the war with Ukraine. In particular, the State Duma on Tuesday, September 20, adopted a number of wartime bills that toughen responsibility for violations during a wartime period or during "military operations"; also the concepts of “mobilization”, “martial law” and others got into the Criminal Code. These measures, coupled with the statements of the authorities of the "LDNR" regarding the holding of referendums on joining Russia, were perceived by the stock market as a new phase of the war.

Also among the drop leaders are large oil and gas companies - Novatek (-8.4%), Gazprom (-5.8%), Rosneft (-5.28%) and others. It is noteworthy that the ruble reacted to the new collapse of the stock market, on the contrary, even strengthened, although during the previous emotional market movements, the currency followed the general movement.

At the opening of the trading session, 10 Chinese yuan traded at the level of 8.599 rubles, at 16 hours Moscow time - in the region of 8.559 rubles.
