Branding China 'currency manipulator' will not merely inflict serious harm on the international financial order and lead to turbulence on the financial market, but will also significantly hinder recovery of the global economy and international trade. The US will eventually bear consequences of their actions - the People’s Bank of China

"Such unilateral behavior of the US undermines the multilateral consensus on key currency issues," the People’s Bank of China noted. "China urges the US to return to the right path and be fair," the statement added. "In its turn, China will continue focusing on the floating exchange rate mechanism, keeping the rate of the yuan against the dollar at a reasonable and balanced level," the bank noted.

Slovak bro, what happened with the petroyuan? When China launched it I read it was a big deal and that the end of the petrodollar could be soon, but haven't heard anything about it since.

Hey, I just keep sharing news when reading them, no big investigation on my side. My opinion, technically everything has been in place for some time ... the timing of the decision to walk-away from the U.S.dollar system going to be political choice, only Putin and Xi know the right time.

the dollar will eventually get overpriced and turn into a bubble, and then the veteran investor, who founded the Quantum Fund with billionaire George Soros in the 1970s, will sell.
“I’m not very good at market timing but I would expect it to be in the next period of turmoil, which will be coming in the next two or three years,” Rogers said. The dollar headwinds are numerous he says, given such factors as the U.S. is “the biggest debtor nation in the history of the world,” and countries such as China, Russia and Brazil are hard at work to find an alternate international currency.
Rogers says he’ll switch to the Chinese renminbi and/or gold when he senses it’s over for the dollar. But he doesn’t own any U.S. stocks, and is only really interested in Russian equities. That is as he’s still predicting the “worst bear market in my lifetime.”

a new gold pricing mechanism that is operated by the Shanghai Gold Exchange instead of COMEX in Chicago and New York or the LBMA in London.

China started something when they opened the Shanghai Gold Exchange where physical gold is traded to a global market. Russia began trading gold futures on the Moscow Exchange which was followed by China and Russia announcing they would open the BRICS Gold Exchange to assist the other members of the BRICS alliance to acquire more gold. This was followed by India stating they would be pursuing a gold spot exchange market and next up is the United Arab Emirates (UAE) announcing they, too, are going to open a physical gold trading platform. WOW! That’s a lot of physical gold changing hands on a daily, weekly, monthly and yearly basis.

"... that it was temporary and that it was reversible, that the Fed was going to be able to normalize interest rates and shrink its balance sheet back down to pre-crisis levels. Well, when the balance sheet is five-trillion, six-trillion, seven-trillion; when we’re back at zero; when we’re back in a recession … nobody is going to believe it is temporary. Nobody is going to believe that the Fed has this under control, that they can reverse this policy. And the dollar is going to crash. And when the dollar crashes, it’s going to take the bond market with it and we’re going to have stagflation. We’re going to have a deep recession with rising interest rates - Schiff

Schiff: The Fed facilitated the 2008 crash by pushing rates artificially low in the wake of the bursting of the dot-com bubble. … The problems of 2008 were caused by an excess of debt. Artificially low interest rates encourage borrowing. After the financial crisis, the central bank doubled down. Now that the Fed has encouraged all of this debt, there is no way it can allow interest rates to rise.

Saddle seems to have some probs there too after he started to be against Trump.

I do not remember him or the articles, you could post them on ZLP in a new thread again. For my part I see the U.S.+ GB politics has been all orchestrated, only sheeple cannot see it. All opposition has been controlled, the perks of the 2 party systems
