Im Bretton - Woods - System wurde der US-Dollar an Gold gekoppelt, die USA boten sich als Sicherheitsanker auch im Kontext eines #NATO - Verteidigungsfalles an.
Nach dem Jom-Kippur-Krieg & schon damaligen Ölpreisschock (auch für Deutschland) wurde der USD vom Gold entkoppelt & an den Fossilhandel gebunden (Petrodollar). Signal war & ist: Brennstoffe werden nur in Dollar gehandelt, wir garantieren.
Für fossile Oligarchen rund um Trump & Putin sind daher sinkende Ölpreise ein wirtschaftlich wie auch politisch riesiges Problem.

Swiss watchmakers 🤦♂️ watched in horror as their über-expensive tickers got KO'd by Japan's quartz juggernaut. Turns out, clinging to mechanical watches while your competitors zoom past you with tech advancements isn't a winning strategy. Meanwhile, Bretton Woods was just the cherry 🍒 on top of their ticking time bomb. Complete shocker, right? 😱

Så hur ska vi kunna bygga en mer demokratisk ekonomisk världsordning – ett slags Bretton Woods 2.0? Det system som råder idag har kallats för en monetär terrorbalans. Särskilt har de två största ekonomierna – USA och Kina – ägnat sig åt att göra den egna valutan svag för att befrämja exportindustri.

Vor ein paar Jahren las ich den "eigentlichen" Grund für das New York-Lager aus #Bundesbank-Perspektive:
Das #Gold sicherte die Export-Garantien und Fremdwährungs-Einnahmen "Deutschlands".
Das stammte noch aus der Zeit vor #BrettonWoods und der Fiat-Ära ab #Nixon.Es war schlicht nicht sinnvoll, diese Barren - ständig! - über den Nord-Atlantik hin und her zu transportieren.

#Dollar is collapsing
The worst performance in 52 years sparks terror in the markets.Shock and awe is being caused by the new plunge in the dollar, which has recorded its worst first-half performance in 52 years, bringing back memories of the Nixon era and the end of #BrettonWoods.
By June, the #US currency plunged 10.7% against its major rivals and sparking scenarios of dramatic upheavals in the global economic order. -
"So far, nothing that has been proposed mitigates the underlying tendency to build up imbalances within the system (large trade deficits and surpluses). However, this new institutional setting allows for two key interventions that will not only limit imbalances but will also unlock massive potential for mutual development. I call these two interventions The Levy and The Charge. Here is what they are and how they work.
- The Levy: A trade imbalance levy to be charged annually to each central bank’s kosmos account in proportion to its current account deficit or surplus and paid into a Common Development Fund (CDF) held at the kosmos issuing multilateral institution
- The Charge: Private financial institutions to pay a ‘surge’ fee into the same common fund, the CDF, in proportion to any surge of capital flows out of a country, reminiscent of the congestion price-hike that companies like Uber charge their customers at times of peak traffic.
The Levy’s rationale is to motivate governments of surplus countries to boost domestic spending and investment while systematically reducing the international spending power of deficit countries. Foreign exchange markets will factor this in, adjusting exchange rates faster in response to current account imbalances and cancelling out much of the capital flows which today support chronically unbalanced trade. As for the Charge, it will automatically penalise speculative herd-like capital inflows or outflows without, however, handing discretionary power to bureaucrats or the need for inflexible capital controls."
