Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

China’s Golden Gamble: Quietly Building a Global Finance Powerhouse

Beijing’s aggressive gold accumulation underscores its ambition to reshape monetary dominance — beyond just the yuan.

Overview

• China’s central bank has now purchased gold for 10+ consecutive months, steadily growing its bullion reserves.

• Official gold holdings recently hit ~2,303.5 tonnes, according to data on ETF inflows and reserve reports.

• Chinese gold ETFs are booming, with 164% growth year-to-date, signaling strong domestic investor demand.

• Global diversification motive: These purchases align with Beijing’s push to reduce reliance on the U.S. dollar and strengthen its reserve strategy.

• Analysts warn the real total could be significantly higher, with estimations suggesting China may be holding far more gold than disclosed.

Key Developments

• The People’s Bank of China (PBOC) added gold for a seventh month in May, boosting holdings to ~73.83 million fine troy ounces. 

• By August, China extended that streak to 10 straight months, holding ~74.02 million fine troy ounces. 

• As of September, reserve estimates (from external analysts) suggest China added ~15 tonnes, possibly under-reported inofficially. 

• In parallel, Chinese gold ETFs saw record inflows: in Q1 2025, inflows reached RMB 16.7 bn, corresponding to ~23 tonnes added. 

• Data from the World Gold Council shows China’s portion of gold in its reserves is rising, even as global central banks continue strong gold buybacks. 

Why It Matters

China’s systematic gold accumulation is more than just a hedge — it’s a strategic play. By quietly building its reserves, Beijing is positioning itself to reduce dependence on dollar-denominated assets, reinforce its financial autonomy, and potentially validate its currency and geopolitical ambitions in a world where gold retains symbolic and practical power.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar 1 — Currency Fragmentation
China’s aggressive gold hoard supports its broader de-dollarization agenda. More gold on its balance sheet strengthens its financial sovereignty and reduces the risk of U.S.-led economic coercion.

Pillar 2 — Reserve Reallocation
As China shifts more of its reserves into gold, it challenges the traditional reserve asset hierarchy. This reallocation could spur other nations to rethink the composition of their sovereign reserves and accelerate a global pivot toward hard assets.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

BRICS Fast-Track De-Dollarization: Russia Now Settles Up to 95% of Trade With China & India in Local Currencies

As BRICS accelerates financial integration, Moscow is shifting nearly all major trade flows away from the U.S. dollar — strengthening the bloc’s parallel monetary architecture.

Overview

• Russia reports that 90–95% of its trade with China and India is now handled in rubles, rupees, and yuan.

• The BRICS bloc continues pushing coordinated de-dollarization, expanding settlement systems and local-currency financing mechanisms.

• Indonesia becomes the newest BRICS member to integrate yuan-based foreign exchange operations, further reducing the role of the U.S. dollar in regional trade.

• The New Development Bank (NDB) is scaling up local-currency loan programs, reducing dependence on Western institutions and SWIFT-linked financing.

• Academic research shows BRICS is building the most significant non-Western financial framework in decades, though the process remains gradual.

Key Developments

• Russia’s Deputy Prime Minister has confirmed that trade with China and India is now overwhelmingly conducted in local currencies, bypassing dollar-denominated transactions.

• BRICS leaders emphasized at their 2025 Summit that local-currency settlement is becoming the bloc’s default practice, not an exception.

• Member states continue expanding alternative payment infrastructure, including:

• Russia’s SPFS system

• China’s CIPS system

• Bilateral currency-swap lines between BRICS central banks

• Indonesia announced it will launch yuan- and yen-based foreign exchange operations, enabling direct settlement without converting into dollars.

• Local-currency usage between Indonesia and China has already reached $1 billion per month — and demand is expected to grow significantly.

• Policymakers across BRICS describe these steps as part of a broader effort to reduce exposure to U.S.-centric financial leverage and sanctions systems.

Why It Matters

This rapid increase in local-currency settlements represents more than a shift in trade mechanics — it signals a fundamental reordering of global financial power. BRICS nations are building the architecture to operate independently of the dollar system, reducing reliance on Western intermediaries and creating a parallel financial world that can operate even under geopolitical strain.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar 1 — Currency Fragmentation

BRICS is accelerating a structural breakaway from dollar centrality. As more trade settles in yuan, rupees, and rubles, the global monetary landscape becomes more fragmented — and less dominated by a single reserve currency.

Pillar 2 — Financial Sovereignty

By developing their own payment rails, swap lines, and local-currency funding models, BRICS nations are building safeguards against Western sanctions and financial pressure. This move strengthens the bloc’s collective leverage and shifts long-term financial influence away from Washington.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

Iraq Economic News and Points To Ponder Monday Afternoon 11-24-25

The Central Bank Denies Any Intention To Change The Exchange Rate Of The Iraqi Dinar

Economy | 04:14 - 24/11/2025   Mawazin News - Baghdad:    The Central Bank of Iraq affirmed its support for exchange rate stability, bolstered by ideal levels of foreign currency and gold reserves, while indicating that there is no intention to adjust the Iraqi dinar's exchange rate.

In a statement, the bank said, "As we approach the end of 2025, the Central Bank of Iraq announced significant progress in its strategic objectives related to maintaining price stability.

The inflation rate has fallen to historically low levels, among the lowest in the region, supported by its monetary policies and well-considered measures, despite current economic challenges."

The statement clarified that "Law No. (56) of 2004, particularly Article 1/4/A, clearly defines its core functions in formulating and implementing monetary policy, including exchange rate policy," emphasizing "the absence of any intention to adjust the Iraqi dinar's exchange rate, in line with its central objective of ensuring price stability, an objective that has been successfully achieved in the past period."

The statement emphasized that "the Central Bank continues to support exchange rate stability, bolstered by ideal levels of foreign currency and gold reserves."

It affirmed its "continued commitment to covering all banks' requests for external financing in US dollars and other foreign currencies such as the Chinese yuan, Turkish lira, Indian rupee, and UAE dirham, in addition to the ongoing processing of bank card settlements and personal transfers through MoneyGram and Western Union, as well as cash sales for travel purposes," noting that "there is no pressure on current foreign reserves."

The statement further clarified that "any external statements or opinions regarding changes to the Iraqi dinar exchange rate do not reflect the Central Bank's position and represent speculations aimed at disrupting the market, inciting speculation, and undermining the stability of the national economy."https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=270745

Dollar Exchange Rates Rise In Baghdad And Erbil Markets

Monday, November 24, 2025 11:04 | Economy Number of views: 216   Baghdad/ NINA / The exchange rate of the US dollar rose this morning, Monday, in the markets of Baghdad and Erbil.

The selling price of the dollar in the Al-Kifah and Al-Harithiya exchanges in Baghdad reached 142,250 dinars per 100 dollars, up from 141,200 dinars yesterday, Sunday.

The selling price in local currency exchange shops in Baghdad's markets reached 143,250 dinars per 100 dollars, and the buying price was 141,250 dinars.

In Erbil, the dollar also rose, with the selling price reaching 141,350 dinars per 100 dollars and the buying price 141,100 dinars. /End   https://ninanews.com/Website/News/Details?key=1263490

Gold Prices Fell As The Dollar Rose

economy | 11:47 - 24/11/2025   Mawazin News - Follow-up:  Gold prices fell for the third consecutive session on Monday as the dollar climbed to a six-month high, while investors awaited further clarity on the direction of US interest rates.
Spot gold fell 0.3% to $4,055.73 per ounce by 06:36 GMT.

Meanwhile, US gold futures for December delivery declined 0.7% to $4,052.40 per ounce, according to trading data.

"The dollar index has risen to near its highest level in six months, above 100 points, and if it continues to trade above 100 points, there will be further pressure on gold prices," said Gaigar Trivedi, senior research analyst at Reliance Securities.   https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=270733

Oil Prices Fall Amid Peace Efforts In Ukraine

Energy  Economy News – Baghdad   Oil prices fell on Monday, extending losses from last week, as peace talks between Russia and Ukraine moved closer to an agreement, while the value of the US dollar rose.

Brent crude futures fell 14 cents, or 0.22%, to settle at $62.42 a barrel at 01:48 GMT.  U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude also fell 15 cents, or 0.26%, to $57.91 a barrel.

The two benchmark crude oils fell nearly 3% last week, hitting their lowest levels since October 21, amid expectations that the anticipated agreement between Moscow and Kyiv will ease sanctions on Russia, potentially allowing large quantities of Russian oil to return to the markets.  US sanctions against Rosneft and Lukoil took effect on Friday, causing about 48 million barrels of Russian oil to be held up at sea.

On the other hand, the United States and Ukraine said they had made progress in their talks on a peace plan that includes territorial concessions from Kyiv and its abandonment of plans to join NATO, while US President Donald Trump set a deadline of next Thursday to reach an agreement, despite European pressure to formulate better terms.

Any peace agreement is expected to help lift sanctions that have hampered Russian oil exports. Russia was the world's second-largest producer of crude oil in 2024, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

The rise of the US dollar also affected energy markets, as a stronger dollar increases the cost of buying oil for holders of other currencies, putting further pressure on prices.   https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=62640

economy | 06:20 - 24/11/2025   Mawazin News – Follow-up  : Iraq signed the country program with the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) on Monday.

The statement explained that "the program represents a strategic framework aimed at promoting inclusive and sustainable industrial development, in line with Iraq's Vision 2030, the National Industrial Strategy 2024-2030, and the United Nations Framework for Cooperation 2025-2029. The program focuses on diversifying the economy and reducing dependence on oil, in addition to supporting inclusive growth."

The statement continued, "The program also aims to enhance job creation, support the competitiveness of small and medium enterprises, achieve food security and green growth, and contribute to mobilizing public and private sector investments, and harnessing UNIDO's expertise to contribute to industrial development and building a resilient and diversified economy that supports development goals in Iraq."   https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=270757

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

Ukraine’s Holos Leader Challenges Trump: Two Big Questions on His Russia Peace Plan

As Geneva talks advance, Kira Rudik says Ukraine needs clarity on how Moscow will actually commit — and whether security guarantees will be enforceable.

Overview

• Kira Rudik, head of Ukraine’s Holos party, expresses cautious optimism over recent U.S.–Ukraine progress on Trump’s 28‑point peace proposal.

• Still, she says Trump must answer two critical questions: 1) how will he persuade Putin to sign? 2) how will security guarantees be made real?

• Rudik warns that past agreements failed: Ukraine trusted assurances before (Budapest Memorandum), but still endured Russian aggression.

• She insists any future security guarantees must be ratified legally, not just be the promise of one leader.

• Ukraine’s sovereignty remains a core concern: Rudik has previously criticized any deal requiring territorial concessions.

Key Developments

• Rudik told Newsweek that a ceasefire, rare-earth minerals deals, and a summit between Zelensky and Putin have been floated — but “there was no step forward from Russia.” 

• She stressed that guarantees must be executable, not just symbolic: “they need not to be the promise of one leader, but actually ratified … so that it will be a promise of the nation.” 

• Drawing on historical precedent, Rudik referenced the Budapest Memorandum, under which Ukraine gave up its nuclear weapons — but only received non-binding assurances in return. 

• According to Al Jazeera, some European leaders strongly oppose the plan, arguing that its concessions to Russia could undermine Ukraine’s sovereignty. 

• Key features of Trump’s 28-point proposal include: capping the size of Ukraine’s military, limiting NATO participation, and offering partial security guarantees. 

• According to Foreign Policy, there’s confusion about the plan’s origin — some U.S. senators claim it was more “Russian wish list” than an American-authored peace framework. 

• NBC News reports that the plan was approved at the highest levels, involving Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff, Rubio, Jared Kushner, and others. 

Why It Matters

This debate lays bare a core tension in the peace process: Ukraine’s leadership is under pressure to accept a deal while grappling with legitimacy and sovereignty risks. For Rudik and many Ukrainians, the cost of a peace deal is not just strategic — it could be existential. Without strong, enforceable guarantees, any agreement risks being another hollow promise.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar 4 — Security Architecture & Governance
Rudik’s demands for legally-binding guarantees underscore the larger rework of global security frameworks. If such guarantees are institutionalized (e.g., through treaties or ratified agreements), they could reshape how post-conflict security pacts are structured in a multipolar world.

Pillar 3 — Geopolitical Realignment
The pressure campaign behind Trump’s plan — combined with multiparty negotiation (U.S., Russia, Ukraine, Europe) — reflects a shift in diplomatic power. Traditional Western security structures may be evolving toward new, more unpredictable alignments.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

ECB Sees Stablecoin Risks as Limited in Eurozone — But Keeps a Watchful Eye

Despite fast‑growing stablecoin markets, Europe’s central bank warns that low local adoption and MiCA regulation act as buffers — for now.

Overview

• The ECB’s latest Financial Stability Review says stablecoin-related risks in the euro area are currently limited.

• Stablecoins are mostly used for crypto trading, not for retail payments or cross-border remittances.

• Retail stablecoin usage is tiny, with only about 0.5% of volume in small transactions (< $250).

• U.S.-pegged stablecoins (like USDT, USDC) dominate, but their exposure into euro‑area markets is limited.

• MiCA regulation is cited as a key mitigant, including bans on interest payments on stablecoin holdings.

Key Developments

• The ECB authors warn that rapid growth could spur systemic risk, especially if cross-border stablecoin issuance evades regulation.

• Their report flags run risk: large stablecoin issuers hold significant U.S. Treasury assets, raising the possibility of “fire sales” in a liquidity crunch.

• Cross-border regulatory arbitrage is a concern, particularly for stablecoins issued jointly by EU and non-EU entities.

• The European Systemic Risk Board (ESRB) recommends stronger supervisory cooperation and stricter oversight for multi‑jurisdiction stablecoin issuers.

• ECB President Christine Lagarde has called for firm safeguards on foreign stablecoins, warning that redemptions may favor non-EU issuers.

• Former ECB board member Lorenzo Bini Smaghi argues Europe risks losing financial power if the euro is not better represented in stablecoins.

• The ECB emphasizes that MiCA’s rules — including a ban on paying interest for stablecoin holdings — are critical to limiting disintermediation from banks.

Why It Matters

While stablecoin adoption remains low in Europe, the ECB’s cautious tone reveals a deeper fear: that private stablecoins (especially dollar-pegged ones) could undermine monetary sovereignty and destabilize bank funding. The regulation under MiCA is a preemptive guardrail — but rapid growth and cross-border issuance could still expose vulnerabilities if not carefully managed.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar 1 — Currency & Financial Fragmentation
Even if euro-denominated stablecoins are minor today, dollar-backed stablecoins could re-route capital into non-European rails. If this intensifies, it would deepen fragmentation in global finance — and challenge the euro’s role.

Pillar 4 — Financial Governance & Regulatory Architecture
The ECB’s call for global regulatory alignment (especially to curb arbitrage) highlights a broader push: to reshape how digital assets are governed. MiCA is only step one — true global coordination may define the next frontier of financial order.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

The Securities and Exchange Commission participated today, Sunday, in The Market 2.0 conference to keep up with developments in financial technology.

The commission said in a statement followed by Al-Masra, that “the head of the Securities Commission, Faisal Al-Haimas, participated, along with the executive director of the Iraq Stock Exchange and the chairman of the Board of Governors, in the work of The Market 2.0 conference, which is being hosted by the Kingdom of Bahrain and organized by the Federation of Arab Capital Markets in cooperation with the Bahrain Stock Exchange.”

She explained that “the visit also aims to enhance cooperation with regulatory bodies and Arab financial markets and to exchange leading experiences that contribute to developing the regulatory framework and supporting the investment environment in Iraq.”  link

Tishwash:  The European Union: We support Iraq's efforts to diversify its economy.

The European Union affirmed its support for Iraq's efforts to diversify its economy and enhance the role of the private sector in development.

The European Union Ambassador to Iraq, Clemens Simetner, said that the EU program includes cooperation with the Central Bank of Iraq and relevant government agencies in the fight against money laundering, indicating that work is underway to design a joint project with the Central Bank and prepare for its implementation phases, with other parties involved in this endeavor.

He explained that the European Union mission in Iraq focuses on supporting the government's direction towards diversifying the economy and reducing the burden on the public sector, noting that addressing this challenge requires empowering the private sector and supporting small, medium and emerging industries and projects by providing loans that help them build their capabilities and provide stable sources of income away from government jobs.

Tishwash:  Iran removes four zeros from its national currency.

 Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian issued a decree to implement an amendment to the Iranian Central Bank Law to remove four zeros from the national currency, the rial.

According to this amendment, the Central Bank determines the Iranian national currency, the "Rial," and announces it within the framework of the "Governing Currency System."

According to the statement, the central bank is responsible for determining the exchange rate, but it must also take into account the country’s legal obligations and the amount of foreign exchange reserves.

It should be noted that the aforementioned amendment applies to clause (a) of Article (58) of the Central Bank of Iran Law and was based on Article 123 of the Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Earlier, the Iranian parliament approved this amendment in a public session on Sunday, November 2, and the Guardian Council ratified it on November 5.

The Expediency Discernment Council also approved this amendment. Furthermore, the Guardian Council did not deem it contrary to Islamic law or the constitution, thus allowing the removal of four zeros from the national currency, the rial.

The amended text emphasizes that the announcement of the exchange rate must be “within the framework of the prevailing monetary system, taking into account Article 44 of the Central Bank Law.”   link

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

Europe Floats G8 Comeback for Russia in Landmark Peace Proposal

European leaders signal a dramatic geopolitical shift as a new 28-point plan seeks to end the Ukraine war — and re-integrate Moscow into global power forums.

Overview

• European officials are preparing to offer Russia a return to the G8 as part of a sweeping peace framework.

• The proposal is designed as a counter-balance to the Trump administration’s plan, which Kyiv fears could force territorial concessions.

• The European version maintains Ukrainian sovereignty as a core principle, while still making major concessions to entice Putin.

• The framework includes capping Ukraine’s military, long-term security guarantees, and phased sanctions relief for Russia.

• Both U.S. and European negotiators say significant progress has been made, with a breakthrough possible in the coming days.

Key Developments

• European diplomats drafted an alternative 28-point peace plan in Geneva, emphasizing territorial integrity and the preservation of Ukraine’s sovereign rights.

• A major concession: Russia would be invited back into the G8 — a symbolic and economic reintegration step after its 2014 expulsion.

• The proposal caps Ukraine’s peacetime military at 800,000 troops, a higher figure than the Trump administration’s suggested 600,000.

• The plan establishes robust U.S.-style security guarantees, including compensation for Washington and automatic sanctions snap-back if Russia violates terms.

• It outlines a comprehensive reconstruction and redevelopment plan, including energy infrastructure, technology investment, and World Bank financing mechanisms.

• Zelensky signaled cautious optimism, noting that there are “signs that President Trump’s team is listening.”

• Secretary of State Marco Rubio described the talks as “tremendous progress,” stating that negotiators are close to finalizing the framework.

• The plan ends with a legally binding ceasefire mechanism, monitored by a multinational Board of Peace chaired by President Trump.

Why It Matters

If enacted, this agreement would be one of the most consequential geopolitical settlements since the end of the Cold War. Restoring Russia to the G8, restructuring Ukraine’s security architecture, and linking sanctions relief to verifiable compliance represent a profound shift in global power dynamics. These moves would reshape alliances, redraw energy and trade flows, and establish new precedents for how major conflicts are resolved under a multipolar order.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar 3 — Geopolitical Realignment

Re-admitting Russia to the G8 signals a foundational shift in Western strategy. Instead of isolating Moscow, European powers are moving toward selective reintegration — a recalibration that alters blocs, alliances, and global governance norms.

Pillar 5 — Security & Defense Architecture

By capping Ukraine’s military, redefining NATO’s limits, and building a new U.S.–Russia security compact, the plan restructures Europe’s defense landscape. These adjustments establish a new equilibrium for power projection, deterrence, and long-term peace mechanisms.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

NATO Ally Intercepts Russian Warship as Tensions Rise in European Waters

U.K. shadows Russian vessels amid escalating undersea security concerns

Overview

• The U.K. intercepted a Russian corvette and tanker off its southern coast during a round-the-clock shadowing mission.

• British officials accuse a separate Russian spy ship, Yantar, of pointing lasers at U.K. pilots in recent days.

• London reports a 30% increase in Russian vessels posing threats to U.K. waters over the last two years.

Key Developments

• HMS Severn intercepted Russia’s Stoikiy corvette and Yelnya tanker as the vessels moved through the Dover Strait into the English Channel.

• Another NATO ally assumed tracking responsibilities once the ships reached the coast of Brittany, highlighting coordinated alliance surveillance.

• Previous similar incidents include U.K. naval forces shadowing Russian destroyers, submarines, and tugboats throughout 2024–2025.

• Russian intelligence vessel Yantar reportedly used lasers against British P-8 Poseidon pilots operating near U.K. waters.

• GPS jamming was recorded near HMS Somerset and nearby civilian vessels, though no combat systems were affected.

• NATO is accelerating investment in undersea protection as 98% of global data flows through seabed cables now considered high-risk targets.

Why It Matters

Russia’s expanded maritime activity around Europe—particularly near undersea cables and pipelines—has become a critical strategic concern. NATO allies view these operations as part of Moscow’s wider campaign to probe Western defenses and test vulnerabilities in global infrastructure.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar: Geopolitical Realignment
Russia’s aggressive naval posture is accelerating NATO defense coordination and reshaping security calculations across Europe, pushing allies toward greater integration and shared maritime monitoring.

Pillar: Critical Infrastructure & Energy Security
The threat to seabed cables and pipelines highlights the fragility of the global communications and energy backbone—forcing governments to modernize protections and redesign oversight mechanisms.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

The Hidden $20 Trillion Global Carry Trade that will Unwind Everything

The Hidden $20 Trillion Global Carry Trade that will Unwind Everything

Michael Cowan:  11-23-2025

For nearly three decades, a powerful, yet often invisible, financial mechanism has acted as the subterranean engine of global capital markets: The Japanese Yen Carry Trade.

This trade—a complex borrowing strategy stretching back to the 1990s—is the linchpin supporting trillions of dollars in global assets, including significant portions of the US Treasury market and the soaring valuations of the S&P 500.

But the cornerstone of this foundation has just cracked.

Recent, dramatic shifts have signaled that this multi-trillion-dollar carry trade is beginning to unwind, threatening not just a market correction, but a widespread financial upheaval potentially worse than the crisis of 2008.

To understand the danger, we must first understand the mechanism.

The Yen Carry Trade is financial arbitrage based on interest rate differentials. For decades, the Bank of Japan maintained near-zero or even negative interest rates to stimulate its economy. This created an irresistible opportunity for global investors.

This process flooded global markets, particularly the US, with cheap liquidity, driving up asset prices and effectively subsidizing US government debt. It was free money driving the greatest risk-on rally in history.

The fundamental assumption underpinning the entire carry trade was that Japanese interest rates would remain near zero indefinitely. That assumption is now dead.

For institutional investors who assumed these rates were anchored near zero, these spikes represent massive losses on their bond holdings, shattering confidence in the sustainability of Japan’s debt policy.

When investors lose faith in the anchor currency’s rate mechanism, the trade becomes untenable.

The process of the carry trade unwinding is a forced, destructive loop.

When Japanese yields rise, the cost of maintaining those yen-denominated loans increases dramatically. Investors who borrowed yen must now rush to repay their loans before the cost becomes crippling.

This is the catastrophic trigger. Trillions of dollars in US stocks, bonds, and emerging market assets—the foundation of retirement funds and 401ks globally—must be sold off rapidly.

Unlike the 2008 crisis, which was concentrated in the US housing market and derivative products, the yen carry trade unwind cuts across virtually every major asset class, threatening a cascade of forced liquidations worldwide.

The threat to market stability is severe, but it is magnified by concurrent challenges facing Japan:

Japan is finally seeing meaningful inflation after decades of stagnation. If the Bank of Japan is forced to raise its benchmark interest rate to control price growth, it will accelerate the unwinding process exponentially, punishing borrowers further and multiplying the asset liquidation pressure.

Geopolitical friction, particularly the simmering tensions between China and Japan over Taiwan, adds a layer of economic risk. Any escalation could provoke sanctions against Japan, further destabilizing its economy and forcing investors out of Japanese assets entirely.

We are already seeing real-world examples of this shift. SoftBank’s massive recent sell-off of Nvidia shares—a titan of the high-growth tech sector—serves as a stark warning. As confidence in assets fueled by cheap yen borrowing evaporates, investors are taking profits and moving to cash before they are forced to liquidate at distressed prices.

The potential unwinding of the Yen Carry Trade is not a distant theoretical risk; it is an active threat already manifesting in bond markets. This shift signals a massive repricing of global risk and capital costs.

The era of consistently cheap credit supporting inflated global asset prices may be coming to a harsh and sudden end. Investors need to be acutely aware of the systemic risks associated with this monumental financial mechanism finally grinding to a halt.

For an unprecedented, in-depth look at how this financial earthquake could impact your investments and the stability of the global economy, we highly recommend you watch the full analysis from Michael Cowan.

This Is Why Gold Is Rising While the Dollar Falls Apart

This Is Why Gold Is Rising While the Dollar Falls Apart

The Jay Martin Show:  11-23-2025

In this explosive conversation, Jay sits down with Andy Schectman to break down the biggest monetary shift happening beneath the surface of global finance.

Schectman explains why the newly passed Genius Act and the rise of Treasury-backed stablecoins may be quietly restructuring the U.S. dollar system.

They dig into gold’s explosive institutional demand, America’s pivot toward state capitalism, the government’s race for critical minerals, and the dangerous cracks emerging in the repo market that signal deep fragility across the banking system.

BRICS Shift: Indonesia Turns to the Yuan to Break Dollar Dependence

Indonesia accelerates its monetary pivot as local currency settlement with China surges

Overview

• Indonesia is preparing to launch foreign exchange operations in the Chinese yuan and Japanese yen, reducing reliance on the US dollar.

• The country aims to expand Local Currency Transactions (LCT) so trade no longer requires conversion through the dollar.

• Bank Indonesia reports significant growth in yuan-rupiah settlements with China, strengthening domestic FX stability.

• These changes align with broader BRICS trends as emerging economies pursue financial systems less tied to Western monetary dominance.

Key Developments

• Expansion of Local Currency Settlement
  Indonesia’s new FX operations will allow businesses to settle trade directly in yuan, yen, or rupiah. The move reduces pressure on the US dollar and lowers costs associated with currency conversion.

• Yuan Transactions Surge
  Bank Indonesia confirms that yuan-based cross-border transactions with China have been rising sharply, reaching approximately $1 billion per month in LCT value.

• New Payment Infrastructure
  Indonesia and China are coordinating on new digital payment channels, including cross-border systems capable of settling in local currencies, improving liquidity and reducing transaction friction.

• Strengthened Bilateral Cooperation
  A renewed yuan–rupiah swap agreement and expanded local-currency trade frameworks show Indonesia’s long-term commitment to diversifying away from the dollar.

• Integration with BRICS Strategy
  The shift aligns Indonesia more closely with BRICS economic objectives, positioning the country as an active participant in emerging de-dollarization architecture.

Why It Matters

Indonesia’s push toward yuan-based trade is more than a monetary adjustment — it’s a structural pivot. By adopting local currency settlement systems and expanding swap lines, Indonesia is insulating its economy from dollar volatility and enhancing financial sovereignty. This transition not only reduces conversion costs but also strengthens regional financial connectivity.

Implications for the Global Reset

• Pillar: Monetary Sovereignty
  By expanding the use of local currencies, Indonesia reduces exposure to US financial policy and steps closer to a multi-polar reserve structure.

• Pillar: Regional Financial Integration
  Enhanced payment mechanisms and bilateral swap lines create wider alternatives to dollar-based settlement frameworks, supporting long-term BRICS strategy.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

A Golden BRICS Renaissance: How 6,000+ Tonnes Are Rewriting Global Power

BRICS nations expand gold reserves and industrial capacity, reshaping monetary power and global economic architecture

Overview

• BRICS nations now hold more than 6,000 tonnes of gold, accounting for roughly 20% of global central bank reserves.

• Russia and China dominate the bloc’s stockpile, collectively controlling nearly three-quarters of total BRICS reserves.

• Central banks worldwide have been purchasing over 1,000 tonnes of gold annually for the past three years — the longest continuous accumulation streak in modern history.

• BRICS is pairing gold accumulation with a surge in industrial cooperation, including new multilateral development platforms and large-scale technology initiatives.

Key Developments

• Central Bank Strategy Shifts
  Global sentiment among central bankers is shifting away from reliance on the U.S. dollar. A recent survey found that a majority expect the dollar’s global reserve share to decline over the next five years, while nearly half plan to increase gold holdings.
  Economists point out that the trend reflects long-term concerns over currency stability rather than short-term price speculation.

• Gold Price Forecasts & Market Outlook
  Major financial institutions are projecting a dramatic revaluation of gold in the coming years, with some forecasting prices reaching $6,000 per ounce by 2028. Expected rate-cutting cycles and reserve diversification efforts are cited as driving factors.
  Discussions within the BRICS community continue to favor expanding use of national currencies for cross-border settlement rather than attempting to formally replace the dollar.

• BRICS Industrial Cooperation Surges Forward
  BRICS nations recently launched a new multilateral platform for industrial development — a center designed to integrate industrial competencies, expand technology networks, and coordinate large-scale cooperation across member states.
  This initiative was reinforced by ministerial-level agreements focusing on industrial modernization, technology partnerships, sustainable development, and support for small and medium-sized enterprises.

• Training & Talent Development Initiatives Expand
  A growing number of BRICS-aligned programs now target skills development in green technologies, digitalization, and advanced manufacturing.
  These programs draw participants from dozens of countries and serve as the backbone for expanding industrial capacity across the BRICS economic sphere.

Why It Matters

The BRICS gold build-up is only one part of a far broader transformation. These nations are building new financial foundations, parallel industrial systems, and alternative development pathways that operate outside of Western-dominated institutions.
This dual strategy — monetary reinforcement through gold and economic expansion through industrial partnerships — is rapidly shifting how global power is structured.

Implications for the Global Reset

• Pillar: Monetary Sovereignty
  Gold accumulation strengthens long-term financial independence and reduces exposure to dollar-centric risk.

• Pillar: Institutional Rebalancing
  New BRICS industrial platforms represent a foundational shift toward self-directed development models that bypass traditional Western frameworks.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.
