While the Russian authorities boast that they were able to replace the “toxic” #dollar and #euro by transferring a significant part of transactions to the #yuan, the Central Bank is sounding the alarm. For normal operation, companies must be able to attract financing in yuan, but Russian banks are in short supply. #China does not provide them, so you can only rely on the Central Bank and the savings of Russian companies and citizens.

from George F. Will:

“…The #FederalReserve was instrumental in igniting #inflation w/too-cheap #money for too long, & then was serene about inflation’s supposedly ‘transitory’ nature. In 2012, #theFed announced its hubristic plan to achieve its aspiration of exactly 2% inflation.
