European markets sank on Tuesday and U.S. stock futures followed suit, weighed down by escalating geopolitical tensions after Russian President Vladimir Putin revised the country&#8217;s nuclear doctrine to broaden the conditions <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/vladimir-putin">for deploying atomic weapons. </a>
Putin's move to ease the threshold for nuclear strikes came just a day after the White House authorized Ukraine to deploy American-made long-range ATACMS missiles deep into Russian territory. 
The Euro STOXX 50, as tracked by the SPDR DJ Euro STOXX 50 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FEZ#NYSE">FEZ</a>), and STOXX 600 indices dropped 1.2% and 0.8%, respectively, both tracking toward their lowest closing levels since mid-August.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Putin Expands Nuclear Doctrine Amid US-Backed Ukrainian Strike</h3>
On Tuesday, Ukraine reportedly carried out its first ATACMS strike on a military facility near Karachev in Russia&#8217;s Bryansk region, about 70 miles from Ukraine, according to reports by <a href="https://newsukraine.rbc.ua/news/us-officially-allows-ukraine-to-to-strike-1732012491.html">RBC Ukraine</a>.
RBC Ukraine cited a Defense Forces source confirming a successful strike, marking the first time these long-range missiles were used in such a capacity. Russia acknowledged the attack.
&#8220;Indeed, for the first time, we used ATACMS to strike Russian territory. The strike was carried out against a facility in the Bryansk region, and it was successfully hit,&#8221; the source reported.
On Monday, the previous day, U.S. Under Secretary of State for Western Hemisphere Affairs Brian A. Nichols officially confirmed that the White House had given Ukraine approval to use long-range weapons to target Russian territory.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">European Markets React: Euro, Bank Equities Drop</h3>
The geopolitical developments triggered a sharp selloff across European equities. In Poland, the WIG20 stock index plunged 2.5%, reflecting the country's proximity to the conflict and heightened exposure to regional risks. 
European banks also bore the brunt of the downturn, with the banking index slipping 2.2%. Among the hardest-hit financial institutions were CaixaBank SA (OTCPK: CAIXY), which sank 5.1%, FinecoBank Spa (OTCPK: FCBBF), down 4.2%, and Unicredito Spa (OTCPK: UNCFF), which dropped 3.3%.
The euro also came under pressure, falling 0.3% to hover at $1.0550 against the U.S. dollar, as traders sought safety in the greenback amid mounting geopolitical risks.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Flight To Safety: Bonds, Gold Shine</h3>
Heightened geopolitical risks spurred demand for safe-haven assets. Yields on long-dated U.S. Treasuries fell by 4-5 basis points, lifting bond prices. The iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TLT#NASDAQ">TLT</a>) could see strong gains following this move.
Gold surged 1%, building on a 1.9% rally from the previous session, as investors sought shelter from rising uncertainties.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">US Premarket Action</h3>
U.S. equity futures mirrored the cautious sentiment overseas, with Dow Jones Industrial Average futures down 0.4%, S&amp;P 500 futures declining 0.3%, and Nasdaq 100 futures slipping 0.1%. 
Walmart Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>) surged over 3% in premarket trading after reporting stronger-than-expected quarterly earnings. 
Among defense stocks, Lockheed Martin Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>) gained 0.9%, while Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) fell by the same margin.

Deutsche Bank AG&#39;s&nbsp;(NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/db#NYSE">DB</a>) CEO Christian Sewing warned that China was a considerable risk for Germany and that Europe needed big banks to stave off competition from U.S. banks,&nbsp;<a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://www.reuters.com/business/finance/deutsche-bank-ceo-warns-recession-china-us-banks-2022-09-07/" style="color:#4a6ee0; background:transparent; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt" target="_blank">Reuters reported</a>.
Sewing added that Germany would &quot;no longer be able to avert a recession&quot; after it became too dependent on Russian energy.
Speaking at a banking conference in Frankfurt, Sewing said Europe had learned how dangerous it was to be &quot;too dependent on individual countries or regions.&quot;
He also said Germany must now face the &quot;awkward question&quot; of dealing with China, given its &quot;increasing isolation and growing tensions.&quot;
&quot;Reducing this dependency will require a change no less fundamental than decoupling from Russian energy,&quot; Sewing said.
UniCredit SpA&#39;s&nbsp;(OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/uncff#OTC">UNCFF</a>) Chief Executive Andrea Orcel added to the economic concern saying Europe faced a &quot;relatively shallow&quot; recession followed by a rebound in 2024 or later.&nbsp;
He agreed that European banks lacked scale and that consolidation would happen eventually.
&quot;Size counts in banking &ndash; and if we don&#39;t want to hand over the playing field to the Americans, Europe must create the right conditions for big banks,&quot; he said.
&quot;The dominance of American banks is no law of nature,&quot; he added. According to UniCredit&#39;s Orcel, &quot;too much&quot; domestic consolidation is not good as it doesn&#39;t create the &quot;plumbing of financial services&quot; to support the economy.
Price Action:&nbsp;DB shares are down 2.07% at $8.06 during the premarket session on the last check Wednesday.

Stocks That Hit 52-Week Highs On Tuesday

The shares of Italian banking giant UniCredit S.p.A. (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/uncff#OTC">UNCFF</a>) dipped in Friday&#39;s trade in Milan as reports suggested that the company&#39;s chief executive officer Jean-Pierre Mustier was being considered for leading HSBC Holdings p.l.c. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/hsbc#NYSE">HSBC</a>).
<h3>What Happened</h3>
Bloomberg&nbsp;<a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-02-20/unicredit-boss-mustier-emerges-as-contender-for-hsbc-ceo-role">reported</a> on Thursday that Mustier is one of the bankers being considered for the top role at rival London-based HSBC.
Mustier&#39;s appointment isn&#39;t final, according to Bloomberg, as others, including Noel Quinn, remain under consideration.
Quinn has led the company since British banker John Flint stepped down from the role in August last year based on &quot;mutual agreement&quot; with the board of management.
The company didn&#39;t name Quinn as the new chief during its February strategy update announcement fueling expectations that an outsider could be selected for the role.
HSBC has said that the next CEO may not be announced until August, Bloomberg noted.
Mustier has spent four years leading UniCredit. The 59-year old French executive was credited with a series of reforms that turned around the bank&#39;s fortune.
<h3>Price Action</h3>
UniCredit&#39;s shares traded 2.29% lower at $14.50 in Milan at press time on Friday. The stock closed 1.37% lower at $14.84 in the otc market on Thursday.
HSBC traded slightly higher at $7.21 in London at press time. The shares closed 0.17% lower at $36.17 in New York on Thursday.
