Oil is settling in yuan now - here's what that means for gold (Ad)

Saudi Arabia has terminated its 1974 petrodollar agreement with the United States - the deal that forced every country on Earth to hold U.S. dollars to buy oil. Since then, Saudi Arabia has signed a $7 billion currency swap with China, begun settling oil in digital yuan, and joined China's cross-border payment system, mBridge. With 10-year Treasury yields pushing toward the 4.4% danger line and global dollar demand in retreat, gold is being repriced. There's one asset that still trades at a steep discount to gold's current price - a rare opportunity to leverage the metal's continued rise.tc pixel
