Stocks Affected
by Sanctions

U.S. sanctions regimes against Russia, China, Iran, and other nations create immediate, measurable revenue disruption for companies with significant exposure to restricted entities or geographies. Sanctions are one of the fastest-acting policy levers — unlike tariffs, they don't require congressional action and can take effect within hours of an executive order.

Sanctions Regimes

Three Active Regimes — Three Different Market Impacts

Each sanctions regime targets different sectors and creates distinct stock-level effects. Russia sanctions are most concentrated in energy and banking. China sanctions operate through the entity list and tech restrictions. Iran sanctions affect global oil supply.
