BRICS expansion: 85% of global population to dump U.S. Dollar ‘all at once’ — Schectman (Pt 1/2)
Kitco News: 8-8-2023
Michelle Makori, Lead Anchor and Editor-in-Chief at Kitco News, interviews Andy Schectman, President and Owner of Miles Franklin, who says a new commodity-backed BRICS currency is an inevitable outcome in the long term.
But for now, investors need to pay close attention to the relationship between Saudi Arabia and the BRICS alliance.
Schectman explains why the move to de-dollarize is already ‘past the Rubicon’ and discusses what to expect at the BRICS August summit taking place in Johannesburg, South Africa.
Schectman explains why he sees 85% of the global population dumping the greenback in due time.
He also examines the U.S. reaction and gives his outlook on gold and the U.S. dollar.
