Russian state-controlled Sberbank is to pay $8bn in dividends after posting its largest-ever profit last year, in a sign of the health of the country’s banking sector despite sanctions. More money for the Kremlin's war machine, @NastyaStognei reports ft.com/content/8eaf26…
CHART OF THE DAY: Since 2022, China has bypassed American sanctions, buying huge amounts of Iranian oil by simple re-branding it as Malaysian. US lawmakers want to close the route — for that, there’s not need of new sanctions; all what’s required is for the White House to…

Google Doc just autocorrected "on[g]oing energy transition" to "annoying energy transition" and that would have been a funny one to miss.
AFRICA AND COMMODITIES: China bails out the junta ruling Niger, with an oil-for-cash loan deal worth ~$400 million. Niger is about to become an oil exporter thanks to an oil pipeline built by China via neighboring Benin. #Africa #Niger #OOTT bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

@JavierBlas @nicole90t It was today that I learnt it's whac a mole, I always thought it was whack a mole. Another non-native English speaker this side.
To be fair, when it comes to Mexican economic policymaking, they’re the same thing.
Dedicated to the non-native English speakers: Discussing a column today, I told my editor @nicole90t that a situation looked like a “guacamole” (the 🥑 recipe). Lots of explanation — and some bemusement — later, it seems I meant to say a “whac-a-mole” (the game). 😳🫣🤓🙃
@JavierBlas @nicole90t I like how it works for both, actually!
Some news. Professional: I'm headed back to where it all started - returning to DC after a quarter century away. I wonder if it's changed. Still Bloomberg; still health. Personal: This one is solo. Henry passed away in January. LAD MI. Brutal. He was 56. I am still wrecked
@JavierBlas @nicole90t Whatever the original situation, we now know the second explanatory disagreement was a guacamole.
@JavierBlas @nicole90t I'm pretty sure I have committed worse language crimes when speaking Spanish.
Voting with my feet. I’m not so much WFH but WFB for next 2 weeks. Normal service yet to resume but keeping up to date with maritime news with plenty of time to track tankers while I recover. Might even practice SQL skills which should be interesting on current meds!
The White House has been more concerned about rising oil prices than increased Iranian crude production. The US should focus on enforcing existing sanctions, rather than adding to them, @JavierBlas writes #OOTT bloomberg.com/opinion/articl… via @opinion
@JavierBlas @opinion Canada’s competition commissioner is congenitally tenacious, a former prosecutor who was born for cases like this one. I expect the bureau will choose to die on this hill.
