Rubio says Trump to take up to 60 days to weigh Russia sanctions

Secretary of State Marco Rubio said President Donald Trump may take up to 60 days to decide on new Russia sanctions, signaling that any tightening of measures against Moscow is unlikely to take effect imminently. The delay channels risk through energy and commodity pricing, since sanctions on Russian oil, gas and related exports directly affect global supply expectations and the cost of crude and refined products. Oil-linked assets, European energy equities and Russian-exposed sovereign and corporate debt are most sensitive, as a longer policy window keeps geopolitical risk premia in place without a clear supply shock. Traders should watch weekly EIA crude inventory data and any official Treasury or State Department sanctions announcements, which would signal whether the timeline is accelerating.

HIGH-impact news is typically a market-moving event with multi-pip or multi-percent intraday reactions. Examples include central bank rate decisions, major CPI/NFP releases, geopolitical shocks, mega-cap earnings beats/misses, and regulatory announcements. Traders typically position-reduce or hedge ahead of scheduled HIGH-impact events, and follow the wire in real time to react to unscheduled ones (war headlines, central-bank emergency statements, surprise corporate actions). The Trading News Terminal squawk box reads every HIGH-impact headline aloud the moment it hits the wire — so active traders don't have to stare at the feed.

Active traders typically follow a three-step workflow when a market-moving headline hits the wire: (1) read the headline on the terminal or hear it on the squawk box; (2) assess whether the news is already priced in (by checking intraday price action in the seconds before) or whether it's genuinely new information; (3) act — either entering a breakout position, fading an overreaction, or tightening stops on existing trades. Trading News Terminal's Pro plan delivers wire-grade headlines within seconds of the source, with automatic audio squawk on every HIGH-impact event, so the read-assess-act cycle never waits on a refresh button.
