🇺🇸 🇨🇳 FINANCIAL WAR BETWEEN THE US AND CHINA ESCALATES
The financial conflict between the United States and China is intensifying, with commodities and metals now firmly at the center of the struggle.
The US has effectively launched an embargo on Venezuela after Caracas began selling oil directly to China, bypassing the petrodollar system. The move underscores Washington’s growing willingness to use financial and trade pressure to defend dollar dominance and limit China’s access to strategic resources.
At the same time, China is preparing its own countermeasures. Beijing has announced plans to restrict silver exports starting in 2026, a significant escalation as silver prices sit near record highs and global inventories remain tight. The result is a rapidly emerging metals front in what is increasingly a full-scale economic war.
