Another Step Towards an Alternative to the Petrodollar

[Tom Kirkman + 8,860]

Another incremental step in the slow moving tsunami that is the PetroYuan.

Another Step Towards Collapse of Petrodollar

"For the past year and half a major topic throughout the alternative press has been the new Chinese oil futures contract settled/priced in yuan. The fact that China is directly challenging the Federal Reserve Note, U.S. dollar, is quite a significant change.

Marina, I've been writing about and talking about and discussing the PetroYuan for at least a year.

Yes, I think it will have a major impact.

Here's one of my old interviews from last year, where I discussed the PetroDollar and PetroYuan with the host, Ryan Ray over in Texas (via Skype).
