Central Banks Tell Markets: "You’re On Your Own Now"
Central Banks Tell Markets: "You’re On Your Own Now"

By Ye Xie, Bloomberg macro commentator
Three things we learned last week:
1. Major central banks prefer the status quo, for now.
The Fed and BOJ joined other major central banks, including the ECB, to stay put as the global economy recovers. The Fed signaled that rates will remain near zero through at least 2023, but stopped short of adjusting its QE program. Only the Bank of England bucked the trend, giving the strongest signal yet that it may wade into negative interest rates in preparation for a potentially messy Brexit.
Besides the BOE, the other central banks are following in the footsteps of China, which is a global leading indicator given that its economy emerged from the pandemic first. The PBOC’s policy stance has shifted to neutral since May, leading to a bond selloff. On Monday, it is expected to keep the benchmark loan prime rate steady for a fifth month.
Without additional monetary support, risky assets are left on their own now. It’s worth noting that China’s stock market has stood still since July. The lack of fiscal stimulus in the U.S. underscores the risk heading into the presidential election.

2. China’s bond flows have come into focus.
Chinese regulators decided last week to increase the flexibility for bond settlements, increasing the chance that FTSE adds China’s debt to its World Government Bond Index on Sept. 24. Goldman Sachs estimates that the inclusion would add $140 billion of inflows to the Chinese bond market over time. There’s likely to be a grace period of 12 months, so the immediate flow impact would be limited, even if FTSE decides in China’s favor this week.
Foreign inflows have been a key pillar for the appreciation in the yuan over recent months. Much of the argument for a strong yuan, including the growth and rate differentials, is still there. So far, the PBOC opted to not stand in the way of appreciation, but the yuan fixing will be closely watched to see if there’s any change in attitude

Between Advantages And Repercussions... An Expert Reveals To "Baghdad Today" The Details Of Removing Zeros From The Dinar
Baghdad Today – Baghdad Professor of International Economics, Nawar Al-Saadi, revealed today (Tuesday, August 25 , 2026) the importance and repercussions of "removing zeros" from the Iraqi currency.
Al-Saadi told Baghdad Today that “the principle of removing zeros, if implemented in a scientific and well-thought-out manner, can contribute to simplifying monetary and accounting transactions, facilitating payment processes and digital transformation, and reducing the volume of banknotes in circulation, in addition to the possibility of using the process as part of a broader reform to bring cash funds outside the banking system back into the official financial cycle.”

Congress Built This Mess. They’ve Made Sure They Don’t Live In It.
Notes From the Field By James Hickman (Simon Black / Sovereign Man)August 25, 2026
King Hammurabi of Babylon had a simple rule for home builders: if the house you built collapsed and killed its owner, you were put to death.
That was law #229, carved in stone almost 4,000 years ago. And some version of this rule has existed for most of human history. Even to this day, it’s a tradition among architects to spend the night under a bridge they designed to prove that it’s safe.
MASSIVE NEWS DAY For Dinar Investors!
The Dinar Den: 8-24-2026
At the heart of the latest discussion is Iraq’s steady march toward complete economic and political sovereignty. The hosts of The Dinar Den point out that recent geopolitical shifts—most notably a apparent decline in external regional influences, such as Iran’s historically strong leverage over Iraqi fiscal policy—are paving the way for Iraq to reclaim full autonomy over its monetary decisions.
This transition is further emphasized by the highly anticipated drawdown of the U.S. military presence, with sources pointing toward key milestones around September 30th.
Rob Cunningham: The New Global Monetary System
8-25-2026
I would size the mature “all-in” global dollar liquidity layer at roughly $250–$500 trillion, with about $350 trillion as a defensible central scenario – and a plausible extreme-state requirement approaching $750 trillion+ if tokenization, collateral mobility, machine commerce and reserve demand expand as aggressively my thesis assumes.
On August 24, the White House formally announced Operation Economic Outcast, explicitly framing Iran’s choice as either “complete global isolation” or a path to rejoin the global economy.
