It is very common to shift the y axis. For example, if you search, "Apple Stock" in Google, the lowest point on the graph is not 0. If you search up "rules of making a graph", there is no mentioning of starting the graph at 0. From my daily use of it in engineering, The axis on the graph only need to follow 2 rules. 1. Needs to be labeled with numbers and units. 1mm, 2mm, 3mm 2. It needs to have a consistent metric, for example, 1, 3, 5, 7. Or for another example, 2, 4, 8, 16.

Theoretically it could but in practice, has almost no chance any time. Maybe over many generations but it won’t be China or BRICS or Russia money that does it since whatever replaces it must come from a government or organization (group of nations) most of the world trust and big enough to produce enough currency. That leaves the only option to possibly replace USD in next 100 years…..the Euro. But the Euro nerds to improve and stabilize before the Euro becomes a decent possibility to replace the USD

@bogdanstamenic2836 What does the US produce? Tech? If you are a develloping nation it is far more valuable to have access to chinese products and Russian weapons ( without risking sanctions by any of them at any point ), no need for the USD in either case.
The Federal Reserve mainly uses OMOs to maintain the ample reserve system; there’s so much money in circulation that buying or selling bonds really won’t do anything. To actually change the interest rate, the Federal Reserve increases or decreases the Federal Funds Rate.
with dollars you can buy anything. With rupees and remninbi you are stuck buying whaterever India or China produces respectively. And forget about buying oil. Russia had this exact problem when selling oil to India for rupees. They sold oil at a discount and got a bunch of rupees which are practically wortless since there is no demand for them on the forex market. Nowadays Russia relies on barter more and more. Like their barter agreement with Pakistan
I am from Russia and your words are just untrue. At this moment I live in Thailand and use Chinese yuan on everyday basis. I haven't used dollar since 2022.
That's the whole point of BRICS, you might not need rupees but another country in the alliance will, the more members there are the better the system works...Look you guys can keep coping but the USD will NEVER be the world reserve currency again, only in the west.
The brainless G7 flag wavers are HILARIOUS!!!! The world is dedollarizing as a rapid pace, even the US admits it, and brainless westerners are claiming it's not happening. How funny!!
Another reason the renminbi cannot replace the dollar is that China has a trade surplus, meaning who the hell has any surplus renminbi around to store? If China runs a trade deficit, this problem goes away.
What's even more comedic is that BRICS a made up oncept invented in wall street by a bunch of investors trying to invest in the next booming markets abroad. Its not even a real alliance 😂😂😂

@@tylerphuoc2653 The "global south" concept is used to talk about countries that are still to this day dealing with colonialism and imperialism from the Global North
The British Empire declined slowly over decades. And the cracks were well visible to everyone for a long time. America shows no such signs of decline - if that is what you are implying.
BRICS wants to build a new currency. It is also worth noting that gold has historically been used as a store of value and a means of exchange, and some countries still hold significant amounts of gold in their reserves. However, it is unclear how a new currency backed by gold would function in the current global financial system and whether it would gain widespread acceptance. Ultimately, any decision to create a new currency would be subiect to numerous economic, political, and logistical considerations.
It's interesting to learn more about the discussions and proposals around BRICS nations and their potential use of gold. There are several reasons why people may choose to buy gold, including its historical use as a store of value and means of exchange, its potential as a hedge against inflation or currency devaluation, and its relative scarcity compared to other commodities. Additionally, gold can offer diversification benefits to investment portfolios, as it tends to have a low correlation with other asset classes like stocks and bonds. However, it's important to note that investing in gold carries risks and may not be suitable for evervone. and investors should carefully consider their investment objectives, risk tolerance, and financial situation before making any decisions.
Investing in gold is a reliable choice, and I plan to keep buying more to make up for my losses. While silver is also a good investment, my collectibles are not as similar. It's important to have clear investment goals and educate yourself on the type of investment that interests you. I work with a financial consultant regulated by the SEC, and started small, but eventually accumulated over $800,000.

@peterdisabella2156 the US establishing the dollar as the world reserve post WWII is litterally US foreign policy... how do you think Europe and Japan rebuilt themselves? How do you think the US pays for its massive spending? Or how Reagan bankrupted the USSR? These were all explicit goals accomplished through US dominance over foreign trade through its currency.
Thats quite a fallacious argument if i ever heard one. Most commodities are traded in us$. Via a global trade system enforced by warships and a massive military.. You need US$ for those commodities. Or you dont get the candy. Whats so hard to understand. The wealth of nations anyone?
You only talked about the past history of the US dollar, but the need to establish a new trading system did not appear out of thin air. In the past, when the US dollar was strong, the price of gold was slowly declining for many years. Especially when the US stock market was strong, gold, as a conservative safe-haven asset, was not sought after by people. However, the situation since this year has completely overturned this logic. While the US stock market was strong, assets such as gold and Bitcoin rose sharply. If Bitcoin can be explained as the influx of speculative funds. Gold still absorbed a large amount of safe-haven funds at a time when investment opportunities are abundant, which is obviously contradictory. The scale of US debt has reached 116% of GDP, which is obviously not something that can be alleviated by increasing taxes. You can say that Japan's debt scale is 200% of GDP, so the United States still has room for growth. However, the economic size of the two sides differs by more than 20 times, and neither of the two presidents in this election has proposed a specific plan to resolve the debt, which is likely to indicate that the debt scale will continue to increase as rapidly as in the past. China currently holds 3 trillion US dollars, more than twice that of Japan, the second largest country in terms of US dollar holdings. However, these US dollars cannot be used to purchase Western high-tech, such as lithography machines, due to the technological blockade. The purchase of energy products such as oil can be directly from major exporters, such as Saudi Arabia and Russia, using RMB. Holding such a large amount of US dollars and the reduction in their use have caused idle assets. These combined factors have created the need for a new payment system. As long as there is demand, there is motivation. As for whether it will succeed, this is definitely a very long process, and there will be various ups and downs in the process. The success of this system is ultimately related to the outcome of the Sino-US confrontation in the second half of the 21st century. But as a Chinese, I am actually pessimistic. The Chinese, who have been poor for two centuries, have not yet achieved the living standards of the Japanese, but have been hastily pushed up to compete with the United States, which has been strong for a century. If we lose, all the efforts of everyone before will be gone, which is really hard to accept.
@@1mol831 The remnibi is still being restricted from international trade by the Chinese government. If that changed (unlikely) or if China facilitates the creation of a new international trade currency, it wouldn't take long for that currency to potentially dethrone the dollar. The strength of the dollar is directly proportional to the U.S. share of global of trade. Today, China dominates global exports but still hesitates to increase imports, likely fearing increased labor costs and remnibi outflows. If they were to change their stance (again unlikely, but far from impossible), it would be a major threat to the dollar. And without reserve status, the dollar would face an inflation crisis as the government would struggle to finance its debt. Nevermind the trade war that Trump is trying to start. If he succeeds, global trade with the U.S. will face a sharp decline and create further demand for alternatives. The dollar is not on a sure path to death and it isn't clear exactly when if ever, it will be replaced but its position is not currently secure by any stretch of the imagination. Remember "slowly and then all at once", once serious speculation begins that the dollar is under threat, it wouldn't take long for a panic selling to reduce reserves at a rapid pace. It's just that the online discourse is exaggerated and is mostly fear mongering. However, that doesn't mean that any such concerns are unfounded.
Open Market Operations (OMO) are no longer the primary tool that the Fed uses the control interest rates. Ever since the 2008 recession, banks have kept much more reserves. Hence, we have an ample reserves framework. In this framework, increasing or decreasing the money supply doesn’t directly affect interest rates. The Fed uses OMOs to keep us in the ample reserves framework or to offset declines in reserves. However, the main tools that the Fed uses to control interest rates is the Discount Rate, the Interest On Reserve Balances (IORB) rate, and the Overnight Reverse Repurchase rate (ON-RRP).

TLDR: dollars pretty strong with no real FIAT competition when production costs are averaged out, people don’t trust fox or cnn or even forbs at this point.
on a foundational level for fiat currencies, the dollar is highly stable and strong, like insanely strong outside of the U.S., personally I see digital currencies becoming more attractive and predominate even if they’re used as a “safe haven” currency for volatile times.
The market usually has a rule that if there’s slop about a specific economic factor, it’s either bs for clicks and media attention or factual data that needs to be talked about in higher levels of education and possibly government.
The market also typically holds against whatever media says because there has been a developming resentment to the factual information the medias produce.

2. It needs to have a consistent metric, for example, 1, 3, 5, 7. Or for another example, 2, 4, 8, 16.

with dollars you can buy anything. With rupees and remninbi you are stuck buying whaterever India or China produces respectively. And forget about buying oil.
Russia had this exact problem when selling oil to India for rupees. They sold oil at a discount and got a bunch of rupees which are practically wortless since there is no demand for them on the forex market. Nowadays Russia relies on barter more and more. Like their barter agreement with Pakistan

Hoser is like that rare world rezerve currency. Nobody can get enough of it.
BRICS wants to build a new currency. It is also worth noting that gold has historically been used as a store of value and a means of exchange, and some countries still hold significant amounts of gold in their reserves. However, it is unclear how a new currency backed by gold would function in the current global financial system and whether it would gain widespread acceptance. Ultimately, any decision to create a new currency would be subiect to numerous economic, political, and logistical considerations.
It's interesting to learn more about the discussions and proposals around BRICS nations and their potential use of gold. There are several reasons why people may choose to buy gold, including its historical use as a store of value and means of exchange, its potential as a hedge against inflation or currency devaluation, and its relative scarcity compared to other commodities. Additionally, gold can offer diversification benefits to investment portfolios, as it tends to have a low correlation with other asset classes like stocks and bonds. However, it's important to note that investing in gold carries risks and may not be suitable for evervone. and investors should carefully consider their investment objectives, risk tolerance, and financial situation before making any decisions.
Investing in gold is a reliable choice, and I plan to keep buying more to make up for my losses. While silver is also a good investment, my collectibles are not as similar. It's important to have clear investment goals and educate yourself on the type of investment that interests you. I work with a financial consultant regulated by the SEC, and started small, but eventually accumulated over $800,000.
I think this is something I should do, but I've been stalling for a long time now. I don't really know which firm to work with; I feel they are all the same but it seems you’ve got it all worked out with the firm you work with so i surely wouldn’t mind a recommendation.

You only talked about the past history of the US dollar, but the need to establish a new trading system did not appear out of thin air. In the past, when the US dollar was strong, the price of gold was slowly declining for many years. Especially when the US stock market was strong, gold, as a conservative safe-haven asset, was not sought after by people.
However, the situation since this year has completely overturned this logic. While the US stock market was strong, assets such as gold and Bitcoin rose sharply. If Bitcoin can be explained as the influx of speculative funds. Gold still absorbed a large amount of safe-haven funds at a time when investment opportunities are abundant, which is obviously contradictory.
The scale of US debt has reached 116% of GDP, which is obviously not something that can be alleviated by increasing taxes. You can say that Japan's debt scale is 200% of GDP, so the United States still has room for growth. However, the economic size of the two sides differs by more than 20 times, and neither of the two presidents in this election has proposed a specific plan to resolve the debt, which is likely to indicate that the debt scale will continue to increase as rapidly as in the past.
China currently holds 3 trillion US dollars, more than twice that of Japan, the second largest country in terms of US dollar holdings. However, these US dollars cannot be used to purchase Western high-tech, such as lithography machines, due to the technological blockade. The purchase of energy products such as oil can be directly from major exporters, such as Saudi Arabia and Russia, using RMB. Holding such a large amount of US dollars and the reduction in their use have caused idle assets. These combined factors have created the need for a new payment system.
As long as there is demand, there is motivation. As for whether it will succeed, this is definitely a very long process, and there will be various ups and downs in the process. The success of this system is ultimately related to the outcome of the Sino-US confrontation in the second half of the 21st century. But as a Chinese, I am actually pessimistic. The Chinese, who have been poor for two centuries, have not yet achieved the living standards of the Japanese, but have been hastily pushed up to compete with the United States, which has been strong for a century. If we lose, all the efforts of everyone before will be gone, which is really hard to accept.
Probably when the U.S. reaches a 10000% debt to GDP ratio. Then it’s time to think about rethinking what to use.
@@1mol831 that wont happen for a while

@@admiralkaede It depends how the administration is doing. If you elect reckless leaders.
@@1mol831 The remnibi is still being restricted from international trade by the Chinese government. If that changed (unlikely) or if China facilitates the creation of a new international trade currency, it wouldn't take long for that currency to potentially dethrone the dollar. The strength of the dollar is directly proportional to the U.S. share of global of trade. Today, China dominates global exports but still hesitates to increase imports, likely fearing increased labor costs and remnibi outflows. If they were to change their stance (again unlikely, but far from impossible), it would be a major threat to the dollar. And without reserve status, the dollar would face an inflation crisis as the government would struggle to finance its debt. Nevermind the trade war that Trump is trying to start. If he succeeds, global trade with the U.S. will face a sharp decline and create further demand for alternatives. The dollar is not on a sure path to death and it isn't clear exactly when if ever, it will be replaced but its position is not currently secure by any stretch of the imagination. Remember "slowly and then all at once", once serious speculation begins that the dollar is under threat, it wouldn't take long for a panic selling to reduce reserves at a rapid pace. It's just that the online discourse is exaggerated and is mostly fear mongering. However, that doesn't mean that any such concerns are unfounded.
Open Market Operations (OMO) are no longer the primary tool that the Fed uses the control interest rates. Ever since the 2008 recession, banks have kept much more reserves. Hence, we have an ample reserves framework. In this framework, increasing or decreasing the money supply doesn’t directly affect interest rates. The Fed uses OMOs to keep us in the ample reserves framework or to offset declines in reserves. However, the main tools that the Fed uses to control interest rates is the Discount Rate, the Interest On Reserve Balances (IORB) rate, and the Overnight Reverse Repurchase rate (ON-RRP).

@@MGZettarussia can still use the dollar. It's not like the dollars in their bank turned to dust when they got sanctioned. The big problem is how are they going to use it.
Answer: middlemen. Smuggle out dollars in exchange for the rubble, while also paying hazard fees to the middlemen helping keep the rubble afloat because the middlemen also risk getting sanctioned themselves.
Look at a money changer outside russia that still trades rubble some time, and you will see the buy/sell spread is huge compared to other more major currencies.
@@Moonstone-Redux We're talking about reserve currency, international trade, not illegal exchangers. Lmao. Literally all of Russian reserves turned into a dust and they can't have access to their dollar. Do you know what you're talking about? Do you think Russian bank had physical dollars in their vaults or something? Lmao.
23:33 how many people then went to that video to see the comment?
always assumed this channel was created by the feds.
This is the most level-headed analysis of the topic on TH-cam.
Its so simplified it almost makes it wrong
Destroyed no.
Weakened yes.
Using currency as a weapon is a bad idea no matter happens after someone will do whatever it takes to weaken your weapon's (money) effect. Plus it's natural for a dominant nation to have competition no century has gone without competition of nations. People are driven mainly by interests in the BRICS + not ideology.
Hoser did make a valid point that the Dollar is being challenged not because its use is unpopular but because of America's conduct on the world stage,American hegemony is based on its claim of being the Arsenal of Democracy and protector of Human Rights and Rule of Law,and yet it supplies ammunition that Israel uses to commit a genocide in Gaza, another reason could be that many nations can't seriously be affected by sanctions or other financial punishments the US would enact on them
27 minute is good...
Give 27 second answer.
Me no neurons
The dollar being universal is nice for trade and switching to something else would take a while and might suck more than the dollar so no one cares
I'll give you a 3 word answer
Not anytime soon
More people need to watch this
India later on more recently folds on the anti-dollar currency:
1:14 the 2000 rupees is no longer in circulation
Yes it can. But I am not sure how. Yet.
Could it potentially be replaced? Yes of course. Will it ever be replaced? No, very unlikely.
It is literally happening before your eyes but keep coping... The USD will remain an importsnt currency in the west but the global south ( 80% of the world's population ) will switch to local alternatives to circumvent sanctions.
The Roman EMpire thought the same.
@@determination8359 The world was not globalized during the age of the Roman Empire.
Also, in the moder world, the USA is far far bigger and more powerful and influential than Rome ever could've dreamed of.
@@ThwipThwipBoom The British empire says hello...The US produces NOTHING that the global south can't live without and has adopted the HIGLY destructive foreign policy of sanctionning whoever disagrees with them, that alone will lead to its ineluctable replacement as the global reserve currency within the next 15 years...Just watch

Why is gold used as a store of value? You can't buy stuff with it.
its literally worthless
@@SlavesWereGoodit isnt. Computers use gold.
Gold is a very important conductor and for other industrial process.

Go read on what makes a currency: a currency.
Seriously. What do they teach you in school.. how to know nothing and not seek knowledge ?
Why didnt UN introduced its own international currency
It’ll be too unstable,
see the Euro in Greece, debt happens.
It’d better for countries to manage easily with their currencies if they can.
there were an extremely variable amount of proposals
the most practical of them were 'trade balance of accounts'
where a nation's currency would be its net import-export,
but they all failed to resolve political issues like capital controls

THE ONLY REASON THIS CONVERSATION EXISTS IS BECAUSE PEOPLE KEEP ASKING.

Thank you for recommending Sarah Jennine Davis on one of your videos. I reached out to her and :nvesting with her has been amazing.
Wow, congratulations on your impressive investment success! Your discipline and focus on delayed gratification is truly inspiring. I'm curious, what are some of the key factors that you consider when making investment decisions? Do you have any tips for those of us who are just starting to dip our toes into the world of investing? Thanks for sharing your story!
I love how cute the Russian bear is slowly emerging from corners lol.
Same 😂
We're back baby 🙌
Bro’s coping 😷
23:09 😂Are you sure there is no coercion? Don't use USD . Soviet Union sells oil to Europe 1980 using USD
There is a great lineage of world Reserve currencies . And none of them went away voluntarily
2:43 the BS of this channel begins. The real value of dollar is the us military on imposing threat to other nation. Nuff said😂
@@jonpaul3868 literally. and no mention of the trillions in deficit and debt to to China. This was the worst analysis on the topic I have ever seen. Kid clearly went in with his mind made up and ignored everything else that could lead him to a different conclusion.
Communist, you just hate the US.
/s
This video feels very condescending. Not forcing a country to use the dollar doesn’t mean that the system wasn’t created in order to create a reliance on the dollar and of course give the US more influence and power over the countries that NEED to use the US Dollar for trade.
it's all very Peter Zehan inspired, who has been wrong on a number of issues for some time now.
You will accept our system, or you will starve.
Whole video is just obfuscation. Not sure whether he's actually dumb enough to believe it (probably). It's a simple matter really, US gets to print unlimited amounts since the whole planet takes the inflation hit. Others don't get to do that. This is why the dollar is strong. Rest of the video is just drivel.

Yup. Ppl like hoser needs to chill tf out & add some spice in they diet
15:48 and that never happens with sanctions the point of the sanction has been told to bring change in a countries behaviour but it is actually just to punish us enemies
You got further into the 'dollar is dead' shtick than I expected.
The British 💷 pound still stands strong 😂😂
You had me in the beginning not gonna lie. I thought you had fallen for the meme. The dollar going away would be the best thing ever for the United States. It would finally allow American exports to be competitive with European and Asian exports. The American economy would be unleashed upon the world.
probably not for the whole economy but for large sections of it, for sure.
@@golagiswatchingyou2966 the US dollar is what butchered our industry. just look at the rust belt. i personally live in one of the cities hit hardest by the end: detroit. it's painful to see what's happened to it ngl, so many abandoned homes. but on the flip side: you can buy a 4 bedroom, 2 bath house for 60k!
@@adamelghalmi9771 inevitable globalization did that. the dollar nothing to do with that.

I don't know man. the last time i check the third reich is defeated And yet, the myth of German WW2 superiority and "clean" wehrmarcht keep persistently exist among people's mind. It doesn't help that the right wing movement is also on the rise across western nation (although you could blame the left wing causing the radicalization for this one).
Not unless you... you know.
Not as long as I still breathe
What are you going to do?
Also, you're telling everyone that if you... you know... that's the end of the US dollar?
