Bill Mann discusses the impact of U.S. and European economic sanctions, SWIFT (Society of Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications) and why it's so important, Switzerland abandoning its neutrality in favor of freezing Russian assets, his continued interest in the oil & gas industry right now, and an important step anyone should take before making charitable contributions.

Motley Fool Money Mid-week: "It's almost everything for the Russian economy"
That's how Bill Mann describes the importance of the oil & gas industry in Russia. As we take stock of where we are at this moment, Bill discusses ripple effects for European countries, whether seizing property of Western companies would spell the end of foreign investment in Russia, why Energy Secretary Granholm's recent comments give him hope, rising raw material costs affecting companies like McDonald's and Domino's Pizza, and the J Curve. Plus - If Russia provides just 3% of America's oil supply then why have gas prices spiked in the US? Ricky Mulvey talks with Nick Sciple to get some context.

Also, Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Rory Kennedy discusses her new Netflix documentary, 'Downfall: The Case Against Boeing', and Emily and Jason ponder the threat of an avocado shortage in America and share two stocks on their radar: Upstart Holdings and Etsy.

Motley Fool Money: Who's Got Pricing Power?
Warren Buffett called it the "single-most important decision in evaluating a business". If a business can raise prices without losing customers, it tends to be rewarding for shareholders.

Motley Fool Money: Why We Never Try To Time The Market
A sudden upswing for stocks late in the week is only the latest reminder of why it's a bad idea to try and time the market. Jason Moser and Ron Gross share data that proves staying in the market is much more efficient (and lucrative) for investors than jumping in and out, and discuss: Etsy increasing their seller transaction fee, Block's transaction revenue growth, Home Depot and Lowe's getting different reactions from similar 4th-quarter reports, and the latest from Beyond Meat, Mercadolibre, Fulgent Genetics, and Booking Holdings. Chief Investment Officer Andy Cross talks with Jeff Green, CEO of The Trade Desk, and Jason and Ron answer a listener's question about how to build a portfolio. Jason's radar stock is Zoom Video and Ron unveils his "Resilient Basket" of stocks! (Costco, Disney, Domino's Pizza, Home Depot, Microsoft, Target).
