OGZPY - Gazprom: Even If The War Ends Tomorrow The Good Days Are Gone Forever
- After seeing tension simmer for years, sadly Ukraine now finds itself at war with Russia, which has seen Western nations slam sanctions across the Russian economy.
- Despite even targeting their central bank, they have avoided Gazprom which is responsible for their gas exports, as Europe is too reliant on these to run their economy.
- Whilst this has helped Gazprom in the short-term, looking into the long-term, this is a pivotal moment that will see Europe expedite sourcing their energy elsewhere.
- This will erode the medium to long-term profitability of Gazprom, along with its appeal and thus regardless of when this war ends, the good days are gone forever.
- Due to these never-before-seen short-term uncertainties, I believe that a hold rating is appropriate.
