The Iran standoff carries an 'EXTREME' 93/100 systemic risk score, stress-testing global finance. Between the $344M Tether sanctions freeze, China accelerating de-dollarization via CIPS, and Red Sea shipping disruption, we're witnessing multipolar realignment in real time.

The U.S. Treasury has issued a warning to a number of banks in Oman, the UAE, and China, threatening secondary sanctions for continuing to do business with Iran, —reports Fox Business
According to the officials in the Trump administration, this is only the first step before imposing secondary sanctions on financial institutions.
If the banks do not respond, they face complete isolation from the U.S. financial system.
One of the side effects of the war on Iran is the escalating of the de-dollarization in Asia.
US Treasury is terrified because if they don't control the world economy by manipulating the value of the US$, then their grip over the world will losen and weakened.

The next BRICS summit is quietly planning a seismic shift. On the agenda: a new, independent payment system to bypass the US dollar and SWIFT.
This isn't just about efficiency. It's a direct, structural challenge to Western financial hegemony—a system used as a weapon for sanctions, coercion, and enforcing neoliberal order.
Faster, cheaper transactions are the selling point. The real potential? A tectonic crack in the architecture of imperial power. It could allow nations in the Global South to trade without fear of arbitrary exclusion or having their assets frozen by the US and its allies for stepping out of line.
Dollar dominance isn't natural; it's enforced. Building alternative rails is a necessary step toward a multipolar world, breaking a key lever of control.#BRICS #DeDollarization #GlobalSouth #FinancialSovereignty #AntiImperialism #EconomicJustice #Neoliberalism #SWIFT #USD #Geopolitics #LateStageCapitalism

"The dollar and Treasuries, however, are weakening. Not dramatically — although it is notable that benchmark 10-year US government bond prices are now at their weakest since September — but clearly. German Bunds and UK gilts, meanwhile, are doing just fine.
It’s not necessarily wise to extrapolate too far from a short-term market shakeout but this is a strong hint that investors are doing two things: disregarding the dollar and Treasuries as safe retreats, huddling instead in the warm embrace of gold, and treating a US-born shock as a reason to sell US assets. The latter may seem obvious. This is, after all, how emerging markets and smaller economies have always fared. It is a brave new world for the US, however, and one that will reinforce the urge among big investment firms to park a greater share of their resources in Europe, Asia and indeed anywhere else over time.
This is a huge vulnerability for the US, and one that people around Trump are certainly aware of. It is no coincidence that he backtracked on his most aggressive trade policies last April when the bond market became, in his word, “yippy”. He needs a strong bond market to help fund his fiscal agenda, not a weak one that jacks up his borrowing costs.
Deutsche Bank has pointed out that “Europe owns Greenland, it also owns a lot of Treasuries”. By “a lot”, it means around $8tn worth of US Treasuries and stocks. It’s a fun thought experiment to wonder what would happen if Europe sold all of that to keep Trump’s Arctic ambitions in check. The reality, even setting aside how “Europe” would somehow force decentralised independent holders of capital to sell US holdings, is mutually assured destruction."

National leader of Brazil’s Landless Workers’ Movement:
“It is unacceptable that resources for international cooperation are controlled exclusively by finance ministers. We want a voice so that public-interest projects can also access Brics funds, because without resources it will be very difficult to put into practice the many good ideas we all share,” he said in his opening remarks.

The US #inflation hits 3% in October while Fed cut interest rate twice this year by a total of 0.5% to now 3.75-4%.
#Dedollarization continues to put pressure on long-term government #bond yield to now over 5%, meaning that the lower Fed rate is unsustainable and can translate to more inflation, possibly pushing it to 3.5% in Q1 2026.
More inflation pressure will come from #Trump's import tariffs during #BlackFriday and #Christmas.

#US government /#debt is unsustainable. In the past 10 years, the US fiscal debt rose at 7.8% per year. By the rule of 72, US debt will double in 10 years. In 2024, the interest payment on the total debt was 3.1% of GDP. By 2035, just the interest payment on government debt will be 6.2% of GDP, assuming that interest rate remains stable. If there is high inflation, the Fed will raise interest rate. With Trump's tax cuts and #dedollarization, the current US fiscal policy is unsustainable.

#Dedollarization is speeding up this year as reflected by a fall in the demand for US government securities (as part of foreign reserves held by foreign governments). Foreign central banks choose to hold less USD reserves because of a consistent shift in international trade patterns and Trump's tariffs. The #US has fallen behind #China in GDP PPP since 2014. The demand for #Yuan' keep rising because of an expansion in trade between China and the rest of the world. https://www.reuters.com/markets/us/global-markets-reserves-column-pix-graphics-2025-10-08/

> The #BRICS plan to replace the #USdollar leverages the bloc’s control of 72% of #rareEarth metal reserves, which is significant. Rather than launching a traditional #fiat #currency from scratch, the #BRICSnewcurrency approach builds on resource dominance and a #goldstandard that’s backed by real assets. With 68% of trade already bypassing the #dollar and the #petroDollars experiencing its worst decline since 1973

The #Trump war on the #FederalReserve continues with the purported and legally questionable firing of #LisaCook
Trump’s goals
- gain control of TheFed and lower interest rates which should only be done when #inflation is low and the #economy needs stimulus
- 👆weakens the dollar which #crypto fantasists hope will create a movement towards their crappy digital assets and their #DeDollarization dreams
- keep the #Whitism MAGA folks happy by attacking a black womanhttps://www.irishtimes.com/business/2025/08/26/trump-moves-to-fire-fed-governor-lisa-cook

The real reason of #dedollarization is the shift of economic power. When #China and #India have turned into the world's first and third countries in terms of #GDP PPP, why would they want to exchange their currencies to #USD in order to purchase commodities from other countries? The transaction cost of doing multiple foreign currency swaps is just too high for nothing. And when they accumulate so much USD from trade, they need to hoard USD denominated bonds at extremely low interest rates.

Can we dedollarize, democratize or decarbonize a system that has not been decolonized yet?
"The #BRICS bloc has been the subject of enormous hype over challenging US dollar hegemony. For the brics-from-below community, Uhuru Productions provides overdue scrutiny about what can really be done, given terribly adverse power imbalances."

> According to the latest data from the US Treasury, #China lowered its T-Bill holdings by $900 million, from $757.2 billion in April to $756.3 billion in the month of May.
> The sell-off marks China’s third straight shedding of #Treasuries since February, when the Asian powerhouse held $784.3 billion worth of US #bonds.

> You can see the accumulation of #gold in the reserves and the behavior of gold over the past 12 months. And it didn’t start with Trump’s policies. Of course, it started with #Biden when he froze the accounts of people connected to Putin

The International Finance Center projects a gradual weakening of the US dollar and a rise in long-term US Treasury yields in H2 2025, citing slowing US growth, global de-dollarization, and increased policy uncertainty, while warning of heightened fiscal risks as major economies expand stimulus.
