We start today’s podcast discussing energy markets in relation to OPEC+, Russian LNG and the nuclear power sector. We then move onto Africa as we highlight developments which continues to demonstrate how neo-colonialism is giving way to multipolarity and the ongoing presence of China and Russia in this continent. We then onto metals and discuss developments in Gold, Silver and Copper. We then move onto Saudi Arabia and how they continue to move away from the dollar and seek to reinvest into tangible assets. We conclude assessing why the IMF Chief recently visited Beijing and how China and the RCEP continue to develop win-win cooperation and in non-dollar terms.
