IE: US faith in the stability of the dollar will be tested
Rumours of the death of the dollar are exaggerated, but only for now, writes the author of the article for The New Indian Express. The problems with the American currency are increasing, and the cause of this is Washington itself. Ultimately, the US will overplay their hand and lose their political prestige.
At the moment, there is no doubt in the US about the stability of the dollar as a reserve currency. However, considering the country's economic, political, and social problems, this faith will be put to the test.
To paraphrase Mark Twain's famous joke, rumours of the death of the dollar are exaggerated, although its health problems are increasing.
The problems with the dollar are mainly caused by Americans themselves. The unrestrained fiscal and monetary policies of the US - with a budget deficit and government debt at 7% and over 100% of GDP respectively - have reduced the dollar's long-term purchasing power. Since 1972, it has fallen by 99% against gold and lost 90% of its purchasing power in the market for real goods and services.
American politicians have always sought to use the dollar as a weapon to achieve their own goals, thereby compensating for economic weaknesses, such as lack of competitiveness. The US has sought to exclude foreign entities from international payment systems, such as SWIFT.
Washington imposes secondary sanctions to punish individuals and organisations that are not even under US jurisdiction. If a Russian company is under sanctions, anyone doing business with it may be subject to legal action, even if they comply with their own country's laws. This is done through a questionable system of dollar transactions that only pass through the US banking system. International banks and others have already faced legal action for operations that are legal in their own country. The threats are sufficient to disrupt dealings with organisations under US sanctions.

The suspect, identified as 20-year-old Victor Hawkins, was a former student who said he wanted to shoot up the school “like the Columbine shooters did.” While taking down the shooter, Moore was shot in the leg. He is expected to recover.

📝 🛢 📈 Oil prices will rise to at least $140 per barrel by June if the Strait of Hormuz is not reopened by July, and will not return to pre-Iran War levels before 2028 even in a best-case scenario, predicts Goldman Sachs. It warns of price surges and major economic impacts.
The Iran War is predicted by Goldman to permanently add at least $9 to the cost of a barrel of oil – equivalent to an extra 20 cents per gallon for gasoline in the US, or 5 cents/pence per litre for petrol in the EU and UK. This is forecast to persist for years.
Goldman warns that the full economic impact is likely underappreciated given refined product shortages, record inventory draws, and the potential for non-linear price responses. It notes a record gap between crude and fuel prices, highlighting the likely economic pain.
It forecasts a large amount of demand destruction, particularly in the regions most exposed – the Middle East, South Korea, Japan, and Africa – but warns that even sharper ...
✈️ 🇪🇺 🛢 As airlines ground planes and officials urge citizens to cut back on their commutes, Europe’s effort to prevent shortages caused by the Iran war is running into an unexpected hitch:
Europe doesn’t know how much fuel it has
The scramble comes as the war in Iran drives up Europe’s fossil fuel bill and threatens to choke off supplies moving through the Strait of Hormuz, a key artery for oil and gas. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said Wednesday that the conflict is costing the EU nearly €500 million a day in higher energy costs, even as U.S. President Donald Trump has ordered his aides to prepare for a prolonged blockade of Iran that could further disrupt global energy markets.
“In Europe, we have visibility and commitments into May and June … what happens beyond is hard to forecast,” Tobias Meyer, chief executive of DHL Group, said during a press breakfast attended by POLITICO earlier this month. “There are strategic reserves, but ...
🇺🇸⚔️🇮🇷 Iran expects the U.S. to attack it soon — Fars News Agency
Deputy Inspector of the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, Jafar Asadi: A renewed conflict between Iran and the United States is likely, and evidence has shown that the U.S. does not adhere to any agreements.
The actions and statements of U.S. officials are mostly media-driven, primarily aimed at preventing a surge in oil prices and secondly to escape the predicament they themselves have created.
The armed forces are fully prepared for any new American adventurism and recklessness.
Not only the armed forces and the people, but also political groups that sometimes had disagreements, have now come to understand the importance of maintaining unity.
