Wal-Mart is smart. They're getting ready for the rapid hyperinflation that's coming. This is the only way they can keep up with the daily price increases that will be needed.

A Potential Oil Shift in the Gulf: Is the Era of the Yuan Replacing the Dollar Beginning? Iranian media outlets report that China is shifting its oil trade in the Gulf from the US dollar to the Chinese yuan. In fact, Iran has previously announced that it will impose fees on every barrel of oil transported through the Strait of Hormuz, not in dollars, but in yuan and cryptocurrencies. If China does indeed implement this policy, it would indicate that China has decided the time is right to capitalize on the US's failure in Iran and restructure financial and resource flows in the Gulf, replacing the US dollar with Iranian assistance. This could all be part of a larger Chinese strategy, where it is not directly involved in the conflict but is indirectly aiding Iran, thereby undermining the dollar's dominance in the Middle East and attempting to link a portion of oil flows to the yuan. The United States is unlikely to agree to this willingly, and if it realizes that the yuan will indeed begin replacing the dollar in global settlements under a stalemate scenario—an indication of Israel's failure as the region's policeman—it is more likely to set the entire region ablaze rather than allow China to enjoy the potential triumph of its economic strategy. The simplest way to do this is to cripple Iran's oil industry and wait for Iran to cripple the Gulf's oil industry. A costly strategy, but not out of the question.

🚨BREAKING: IRAN SAYS HORMUZ WILL REMAIN CLOSED TO “THE EPSTEIN REGIME” INDEFINITELY

The most likely explanation for Trump's Truth Social lies about Iran on Friday, is market manipulation. If so, Trump insiders must have made billions. The next likely possibility is that Trump is either delusional, incompetent, or a combination of both. Either way it's not good.

Dr. Marandi says there is a significant chance that Trump is making all this up. Trump is, right now, making up stories about what Iran allegedly agreed to in negotiations. He's inventing commitments that Iran never made. He's fabricating a narrative. Then, in a few days, he will announce that Iran has "broken" those non-existent commitments. He will claim that Iran promised A, B, C, D, E, and F, and then refused to follow through. And then, on the basis of those fabricated violations, he will launch a new military assault on Iran

This formation usually takes shape a few hours or days before the first operational wave.” - Iran Exclusive

NEW YORK END FLIGHTS blaming 'DOUBLED fuel price since Iran conflict'

CONFIRMED: Several gulf states have signed secret deals with China on the sale of their oil and gas supplies using Chinese Yuan. This will effectively shift the international trade balance from petrodollar into the Petro Yuan regime. This is the clear indication of US collapse.

THIS IS SAVAGE FROM 🇨🇳 CHINA 😂 🇺🇸 Trump –– "Now Iran has agreed to open the Strait of Hormuz so it should be considered my success in the war" 🇨🇳 CHINA –– 🔥 "The Strait of Hormuz was already open before the war. It was you who created war out of nothing and got it closed for the rest of the world" 😂 A day without humiliation is a day wasted for Trump

This may turn out to be the biggest stock market manipulation in American history.

I believe the U.S.-China competition has entered the "garbage time" of history — the outcome is already decided. But because of the nuclear weapons, the winning side can’t speed up the process, and the losing side is just dragging things out for the sake of pride. Both sides are left slowly, painfully killing time and engaging in pointless verbal sparring. It’s like a basketball game where China is already up by 40 points in the third quarter, but the U.S. head coach keeps pretending to fight back — calling timeouts, running foul plays — when in reality, both teams are just moving along a predetermined path toward an increasingly obvious conclusion.

Fell for market manipulation Friday… again. Markets are closed. Strait is closed. IRGC sending VHF messages. Ships are turning around. Now what: Trump can return to genocidal threats in his rhetoric until futures open at 6PM on Sunday. Rinse and Repeat.
