Chile Is Latest Country To Launch Renminbi Swaps And Settlement
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 06/26/2012 20:25 -0400
The dollar exclusion list is becoming bigger and bigger with every passing day as China gets ready.
For simplicity's sake here is the full list of "bilateral" arranagements in the past year as presented previously: "World's Second (China) And Third Largest (Japan) Economies To Bypass Dollar, Engage In Direct Currency Trade", "China, Russia Drop Dollar In Bilateral Trade", "China And Iran To Bypass Dollar, Plan Oil Barter System", "India and Japan sign new $15bn currency swap agreement", "Iran, Russia Replace Dollar With Rial, Ruble in Trade, Fars Says", "India Joins Asian Dollar Exclusion Zone, Will Transact With Iran In Rupees", "The USD Trap Is Closing: Dollar Exclusion Zone Crosses The Pacific As Brazil Signs China Currency Swap."
And now the latest: "China, Chile To Establish Strategic Partnership, Boost Trade... Launch Currency Swap and Settle In Renminbi"
China and Chile agreed Tuesday to upgrade their bilateral ties to a strategic partnership, and double trade in three years.
Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao and Chilean President Sebastian Pinera announced Tuesday the establishment of China-Chile strategic partnership and the completion of negotiations on investment-related supplementary deals to a bilateral free trade agreement.
China would like to be actively engaged in Chile's infrastructure construction and work with Chile to promote the development of transportation networks in Latin America, said Wen.
Meanwhile, Wen suggested that the two sides launch currency swaps and expand settlement in China's renminbi.
So to summarize, the list of countries that China is transacting with directly (that we know of), and bypassing the USD entirely, is as follows:
Japan
Russia
Iran
India
Brazil
and now, Chile
In other words, it looks like the BRICs already have their "bilateral" arrangements all sorted out, and are now quietly moving into other suppliers of key resources with swap deals, all without any mention of the word "dollar."
How soon until China re-dips its toe in Europe with a modest "bailout" nobody can refuse in exchange for a simple caveat: you get paid in renminbi?

tradermama:
Nice chart! CNY hasn't move much since it's inception in mid-March 2008, with the exception of the fall 2008 "financial meltdown" - total appreciation 2.1% 4-2008 to present.

Just the kind of "sleeper" that could be setting up for a big move!

that is a possibilityI'm buying here for a short term pop in the next couple of weeks.
(1) Raymond Merriman has June 27th +/- 3 days as a critical reversal date for the precious metals.
(2) Also, this is the 6th week of the primary cycle as of the lows of May 16th. Gold typically puts in a major cycle low every 5 to 7 weeks so this is the timeframe for a cycle low.
(3) On top of all that, heliocentric Mercury enters Sagittarius from July 5th to July 16th which is usually bullish for gold and silver. The timing would be perfect for a major cycle high in the second week of July and from there a more substantial decline could begin.
(4) Silver's 18 day CCI hit -236 on Fri, June 22nd. Normally silver will move up substantially (10% or more) within 7 trading days of falling below -200 on the CCI(18). Today (June 28th) is the 4th trading day as of June 22nd.
As long as silver doesn't close below $26.14 and gold doesn't close below $1532 (better yet would be $1550) I think the decline here is limited for now. So far things look good.
lots of possibilities here.
could be another failed eu summit
i am going to wait. until i see signs of a bottom.
