Summary
Trump has threatened 100% tariffs on BRICS nations (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, and others) if they pursue de-dollarization efforts, including creating a new currency to challenge the U.S. dollar’s dominance in global trade.
Trump warned these nations could lose access to the U.S. economy.
BRICS members, frustrated by U.S. financial dominance, have explored alternatives, with Russia advocating for a new payment system to bypass sanctions.
Analysts say the dollar’s global reserve status remains secure in the near term despite these challenges.
do you have a source on the cigar story?
Misremembered a bit, it was a Danish trader wanting to pay a German trader for a larger shipment. Probably not the best source at all but you’ll be able to pin it down more by the date.
I’m sure I found better sources some years ago it almost seems like both google and bing completely obliterated their news index from way back when.
thanks
