Core Viewpoint - India's shift to using RMB for oil transactions with Russia signifies a significant challenge to the dominance of the US dollar in global trade, highlighting a potential shift in the international economic order [1][3][14] Group 1: Background and Context - The shift began after the 2022 Russia-Ukraine conflict, where the US imposed severe sanctions on Russia, limiting its ability to conduct trade in USD [3][5] - As a result of these sanctions, Russia sought alternative currencies for trade, with RMB emerging as a preferred option due to China's stable economic relationship with Russia [3][5] Group 2: India's Transition - Initially, India was a strong proponent of USD, purchasing 12 million barrels of oil from Russia in 2021 using USD [5] - However, following the conflict, India capitalized on discounted Russian oil prices, leading to a dramatic increase in imports from 12 million barrels to 330 million barrels in 2022, accounting for 22% of Russia's oil exports [5][7] - The inability of Russia to accept USD payments forced India to adopt RMB for transactions, marking a significant shift in its currency preferences [5][7] Group 3: Implications for the US and Global Economy - India's actions are seen as defiance against US warnings, as it continues to purchase Russian oil and resell refined products to Europe, undermining US sanctions [7][9] - The use of RMB for oil transactions represents a crack in the US dollar's dominance, as it allows other countries to consider alternatives to USD for trade [9][14] Group 4: Signals for the Future - The transition to RMB for oil transactions indicates that while the dollar's dominance is challenged, it still retains over 80% of the global oil trade [9][11] - India's pragmatic approach to using RMB is driven by economic incentives, allowing it to benefit from cheaper oil while also facilitating trade with China [11][12] - The internationalization of RMB is contingent on China's economic strength and stability, which underpins its acceptance in global markets [12][14]

Group 1 - The current Chinese stock market exhibits a structural slow bull characteristic, indicating a foundation for a slow bull market [1] - Key driving factors for the positive market trend include a low interest rate environment, implementation of institutional reforms, accelerated institutional entry of long-term capital, and marginal improvement in profitability [1] - The deepening reform of the capital market is transforming it from a financing-focused model to a balanced investment and financing model centered around hard technology and new productive forces [2] Group 2 - The ongoing A+H listing trend is expected to attract international capital inflow as more outstanding Chinese companies list in Hong Kong, benefiting the internationalization of the Renminbi [2] - The introduction of long-term and professional institutional investors, such as public funds, insurance funds, and pension funds, is expected to enhance the rationality of stock pricing and overall stability of stock market valuations [2] - The current environment increases the range of selectable companies for investors while also complicating the process of distinguishing quality companies, which is beneficial for bottom-up selection by institutional investors [2]

前言 最近，一则由路透社独家披露的消息，在全球能源市场掀起了不小的波澜。据报道，俄罗斯的石油贸易商已经开始正式要求印度方面，必须使用人民币来支 付他们购买的石油。 这个消息的核心执行方，是印度最大的炼油企业——印度石油公司。据称，该公司已经悄悄地用人民币结算了两到三批来自俄罗斯的石油货款。虽然官方尚 未对此做出任何回应，但水面下的变化，已经清晰地浮现了出来。 这背后，远不止是换一种货币那么简单，而是一场关乎生存、发展与大国博弈的深刻变局。它揭示了在今天的国际格局下，传统的交易规则正在如何被悄然 改写。 在西方严厉的金融制裁大网下，任何一笔美元交易都可能被瞬间冻结或拦截，对于急于规避制裁的俄罗斯来说，美元不再是硬通货，而是一副随时可能锁死 的沉重"枷锁"。 美国的金融霸权，让它能像开了天眼一样监控着全球的美元流动，这让俄罗斯的每一笔交易都毫无隐私可言，无异于将自己的经济命脉暴露在对手的眼皮底 下。 而印度的本币卢比，情况则更为尴尬，在制裁初期，为了稳住石油出口，俄罗斯曾被迫接受印度用卢比结算，结果，俄罗斯央行手里很快就堆积了山一样多 的卢比储备。 这些钱，拿着烫手，花却花不出去，卢比的国际购买力有限，俄罗斯拿着 ...

你见过钢铁是怎样炼成的吗？但你可能不知道，全球钢铁产业链背后，正在上演一场比炼钢更激烈的货币战争。当中国宣布暂停采购必和必拓铁矿石时，澳 大利亚总理阿尔巴尼斯"破防"的反应背后，藏着怎样的惊天秘密？ 这次中方暂停的只是以美元计价的必和必拓铁矿石，已经到港的矿石仍可以人民币结算。这个微妙区别暴露了真实意图——中国要在大宗商品领域撕开美元 霸权的口子。 中俄铁矿石贸易已有45%采用人民币结算，巴西也开辟了人民币结算通道。一条全新的"钢铁丝绸之路"正在形成：俄罗斯的铁矿+巴西的港口+中国的人民币 支付系统。这条不需要航母护航的贸易路线，正悄悄改写全球资源贸易规则。 多元布局下的战略底气 中国敢对澳大利亚说"不"的底气，来自于日益完善的全球资源布局。俄罗斯290亿吨高品位铁矿、非洲新兴矿区、巴西淡水河谷的深度合作，构建了多元化 的供应网络。就像高手下棋，中国已经在全球资源棋盘上布下了多个活眼。 与此同时，国内废钢回收体系的完善、电弧炉炼钢技术的突破，让中国对进口铁矿的依赖度持续下降。这场博弈不再是简单的买方卖方关系，而是综合国力 的全面较量。 当铁矿石开始用人民币计价，美元就失去了最重要的支柱之一。中国这招"围点打援 ...

Group 1 - China, as the world's largest iron ore importer, has previously overpaid due to the influence of international miners setting the Platts price [1] - In 2024, the landed price of Australian ore is expected to be several dozen dollars per ton higher than West African ore, with dollar settlements exposing steel companies to unnecessary exchange rate risks [1] - Hebei Steel Group's iron ore payments in RMB exceeded 2.4 billion yuan in 2024, a year-on-year increase of 25%, highlighting the advantages of RMB settlements [1] Group 2 - China and Australia have completed the integration of the RMB settlement system for wool and barley trade, with the first batch of 20,000 tons of barley shipped using RMB payments [3] - The internationalization of the RMB is steadily advancing, and more trade is expected to adopt RMB settlements in the future [3] Group 3 - Confidence in achieving goals is emphasized, with expectations that more countries and international enterprises will join the use of RMB settlements [6] - The internationalization of the RMB will continue to progress, enhancing its importance on the global stage and establishing it as a significant currency for global trade settlements [6]

一笔看似普通的石油交易，正在悄然改变全球贸易的规则。最近，路透社披露的一条独家消息引起了国际市场的广泛关注：俄罗斯的石油商已经正式要求印 度的国有炼油厂，使用人民币支付石油货款。甚至有消息透露，印度石油公司已经用人民币支付了至少两批俄罗斯石油。 这不仅仅是支付方式的简单变化，更意味着全球贸易格局正在发生深刻的转变。当俄罗斯放弃了卢比，减少了对美元的依赖，而印度在西方的压力下依然接 受人民币支付，我们实际上看到的是全球政治经济格局加速重构的信号。 虽然这一变动看似不大，但其潜在影响却可能引发一场波及全球的风暴，涉及能源贸易、货币体系乃至大国关系。石油贸易中，货币的选择向来是权力的象 征。俄罗斯的这一决策，实际上是在挑战传统的能源交易结算规则。新的游戏规则正在浮现——石油定价依然以美元为基础，但结算却选择了人民币。 这种"美元定价、人民币结算"的模式，既巧妙避开了西方对能源价格设定的限制，又在实质上削弱了美元的主导地位。如果更多国家效仿这一做法，全球能 源市场将迎来根本性变化。未来，石油交易可能会进入一个多货币并存的时代，美元、人民币，甚至其他货币将各占一席，而不再由美元独占鳌头。 更重要的是，这一变动可能促成一 ...
