First, a quick check at the latest in Trump-land\u2026<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>THE BIG LOGISTICS STORY-<\/strong> <strong>Trump comes for Brics nations:<\/strong> US President-elect Donald Trump is threatening to impose a 100% tariff on countries involved in Brics if they act to undermine the greenback by creating a new currency. The move comes as part of Trump\u2019s administration discussions to punish allies who seek to to engage in bilateral trade in currencies other than the USD, including implementing export controls, currency manipulation charges, and levies on trade. \u201cThere is no chance that the Brics will replace the USD in International Trade, and any country that tries should wave goodbye to America,\u201d Trump said in a post on his Truth Social network. Brics \u2014 the acronym stands for Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa \u2014 expanded this year to bring Iran, the United Arab Emirates, Ethiopia and Egypt into the fold.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The de-dollarization movement:<\/strong> De-dollarization has <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/logistics\/en\/news\/story\/a41c0a7d-f210-4c7b-9858-aea2eccd8980\/enterprise-explains:-brics-members-are-pursuing%253cmark%253e-de-dollarization%253c%2Fmark%253e-mechanisms-%25e2%2580%2594-is-it-possible%3F\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">long been an objective of Brics<\/a>, a goal strengthened by geopolitical developments including the heightened tensions between the West, Russia and China. For the US, de-dollarization means the loss of its dominant role in global trade. For other countries \u2014 especially emerging economies \u2014 it's a means to reduce vulnerability to USD exchange rate fluctuations.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The potential impact<\/strong>: Building a Brics currency would be a \u201cpolitical project,\u201d South African economist Lesetja Kganyago told Reuters last July. De-dollarization has the potential to have various impacts on the global monetary system including a shift in FX stability, trade behaviors, and challenges for the established status quo. It could also lead to the creation of new economic alliances and partnerships based on common interests and alternative financial structures.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The story grabbed a lot of ink in int\u2019l press over the weekend: <\/strong><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/trump-warns-brics-nations-against-replacing-us-dollar-2024-11-30\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Reuters<\/a> | <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/trump-dollar-dominance-brics-treasury-8572985f41754fe008b98f38180945c3\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">AP<\/a> | <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2024-11-30\/trump-demands-commitment-from-brics-nations-on-using-us-dollar\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Bloomberg<\/a> | <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/18b3d51d-1e4b-4189-bae2-c31248b6526b\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Financial Times<\/a> | <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/politics\/2024\/11\/29\/trudeau-trump-tariffs\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">The Washington Post<\/a> | <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/edition.cnn.com\/2024\/11\/30\/politics\/trump-brics-currency-tariff\/index.html\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">CNN<\/a> | <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/articles\/cgrwj0p2dd9o\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">BBC<\/a> | <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/business\/2024\/dec\/01\/trump-threat-100-per-cent-tariffs-brics-nations-dollar\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">The Guardian<\/a> | <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2024\/11\/30\/trump-threatens-100percent-tariff-on-the-bric-bloc-of-nations-if-they-act-to-undermine-us-dollar.html\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">CNBC<\/a> | <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2024\/11\/30\/trump-brics-tariff-trade-00192042\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Politico<\/a> <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">^^ We have everything on this story and more in the news well, below.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">HAPPENING THIS WEEK-<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The US Department of Agriculture will host the Agribusiness Trade Mission to Morocco <\/strong><strong>from 2-5 Dece<\/strong><strong>mber<\/strong>, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.moroccoworldnews.com\/2024\/12\/366691\/1st-trade-mission-us-seeks-further-access-to-africas-agribusiness-market-through-strong-ties-with-morocco\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Morocco World News<\/a> reports.
