    The whole point of the war was to stop oil sales in chinese yuan. It’s as simple as that.

    Gold has been surging and that was because they country was trading gold for yuan to buy oil. Now they can’t do that. Oil is traded in USD again.

      Because of the war, emerging markets are trading oil in yen. I don’t know what your talking about.

            Yes that is the idea. Instead of selling gold to buy yuan. Now they are selling gold to buy petroldollar.

              Can you put a source to that? All I could find is the US allowing Iran to start selling oil without restrictions. It looks unclear at this point.
