Amazing that China is supposed to have the global headroom to increase GDP to four times the present value. Is there enough resource in the world and enough ecological reserve for this to happen? #china #ecologicalfootprint

Saudi Arabia Ditching Dollar For Chinese Sales? @gillyw 13/04/22

Oil producers sell their product to the US (and the rest of the world) for dollars, which they then recycle into dollar-denominated assets and, while investing in dollar-denominated markets, explicitly prop up the USD as the world reserve currency. #dollar #dedolarisation #oil
