Ibime: Your jingoistic analytical underplay vis-a-vis the US dollar and the harsh realities of the current global economy intertwined in US geopolitical bullying is not only self-glorifying but pathetically myopic. Now, take a gad damn seat, grab a world map, list out the countries in it, and divide them into developed and developing nations. Done? Now, ask yourself, among the developing nations of the world, how many of them have recorded growth in their foreign reserves for the last decade, particularly since COVID-19, Let alone "exponential growth? Let me help you... 75% of all the developing nations of the world have experienced a decline in their foreign reserves for the past years. This is unprecedented because you have more nations in the "developing class" than you have in the "developed class." Now. Among the developed nations, how many of them have seen a huge rise in their share of US dollars in their foreign reserves? How many of them hold the dollar as a percentage of their foreign reserves account than their own national or regional currency as in the case of the Euro? Even among the developed nations, many are looking for ways to cut down dependence on the US dollar. Contrary to what you want to believe, those central banks whose foreign exchange reserve has increased for the past 20 years, their percentage in US dollars has dropped significantly from 70% to 60 between 2000 to 2022. The threat to the US dollar as a base currency is real. No thanks to the US government weaponizing it as a geopolitical and economic weapon to inflict pain on perceived adversaries. This has set alarm bells ringing across the world, particularly in the wake of the Ukrainian crisis. Nations that were in the past merely considering looking for alternatives to the dollar have been given an excuse to take actionable steps in that direction. For instance, for the first time since the Brenton Woods arrangement, Saudi Arabia and the UAE settled oil trades in currencies other than the US dollar. The emergence of BRICS has added more fuel to the already heating fire. Guy, there is a reason why the potential incoming Donald Trump's economic team is now considering ways to stop nations from moving away from the US dollar. Even recently, Biden's economic officials decry the threat facing the US dollar. And it's rightly so. This excerpt said it all... "The US economy’s share in the world’s output is falling as emerging economies, especially China, continue to outgrow the US and its Western partners. China, the US’s biggest economic competitor, is now the main trading partner to more than 120 countries, with exports amounting to more than US$3.6 trillion (£2.8 billion). This risks leaving the US behind in the race for global trade dominance. Over the last 20 years, China’s share of the global economy has more than doubled from 8.9% to 18.5% while the US’s share declined from 20.1% to 15.5% in purchasing power parity terms (which compares prices of specific goods to determine currency purchasing power). Last year, the BRICS economies (fast-growth developing countries Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) overtook those of the G7 (developed economies US, Canada, UK, Germany, France, Italy, Japan, and Germany) based on their share of world GDP in purchasing power parity terms. " With more nations poised to join the BRICS, and with a new currency set to debut possibly next year when the next BRICS summit is held in Brazil coming year, the dollar's decline is set to continue. No one is saying that the dollar will lose its supremacy tomorrow. It would take one or two decades for that to happen. However, the path has been laid, and from all indications, there is no going back. 4 Likes 1 Share |

⚡Hillary Clinton blamed women for her 2016 loss and suggested they couldn't vote for her because she was "supposed to be perfect." After then-FBI Director James Comey re-opened an investigation into her email server before the election, Clinton said female voters were the ones who left her. "They left me because they just couldn’t take a risk on me, because as a woman, I’m supposed to be perfect. They were willing to take a risk on Trump who had a long list of, let’s call them flaws, to illustrate his imperfection because he was a man, and they could envision a man as president and commander in chief," Clinton said, according to The New York Times.
