News reports coming from both sides of the border are talking of mortars being fired and the shelling of Russian positions. NATO and its allies in Ukraine are reporting back that there hasn&#8217;t been any movement away from the border by the Russian forces and if anything, there has been an upgrade in the amount of personnel and equipment by Russia.<\/p><p>Whether or not any of this is true or just misinformation is going to be hard to tell and only in hindsight may we get the truth. However, on every headline the markets are reacting, which means volatility is rising.
