BRASILIA - China and Brazil have reached a deal to trade in their own currencies, ditching the US dollar as an intermediary, the Brazilian government said on Wednesday, Beijing’s latest salvo against the almighty greenback.

The deal will enable China, the top rival to US economic hegemony, and Brazil, the biggest economy in Latin America, to conduct their massive trade and financial transactions directly, exchanging yuan for reais and vice versa instead of going through the dollar.

China is Brazil’s biggest trading partner, with a record US$150.5 billion (S$200 billion) in bilateral trade last year.

The deal, which follows a preliminary agreement in January, was announced after a high-level China-Brazil business forum in Beijing.

The dollar will become regionalized to the US and Europe. Whatever.

I’m quite sure you do not understand the implications of what you are generally dismissing. About like first class passengers of the titanic, well we just hit an ice burg, but this ship is indestructible, so whatever....

A new world order consisting of India and China, who hate each other and have their own unending border conflict, a mafia state currently involved in a failed war that is destroying their country’s military and economic future, a failed state with frequent power outages run by one of the most corrupt governments in the world and… Brazil. Oh no.

That’s not a good thing.

It’s the start of something the US really doesn’t want to see happen

Imagine a world where the USD collapses and it’s actually good for China…

The dollar will not be the world currency in the next twenty years. We have completely devalued it. The shell game only lasts so long.

What global currency basket store you going to? I can’t get out of the grocery without spending $150 on a half filled cart.
