Trump predicts a market crash in the next 12 months

Former President Donald Trump anticipated a US economic crash and expressed a hope that it would happen within a year, prior to a potential second term in office, if he were to win the November election.
'When there's a crash, I hope it's going to be during this next 12 months because I don't want to be Herbert Hoover. The one president - I just don't want to be Herbert Hoover,' Trump stated in an interview Monday on Lindell TV.

BRICS Developing Independent Financial System, Russian Envoy

BRICS countries are developing an independent financial system free from third-party dominance, according to Russian Ambassador to China, Igor Morgulov.
Speaking at the 12th World Peace Forum in Beijing, Morgulov noted the increasing volume of Russia's transactions in national currencies with other BRICS nations.
He highlighted that Russia-China trade has reached $240 billion, with 92% of settlements in rubles and yuans.
Morgulov emphasized that BRICS is moving away from dollar dominance, developing mechanisms for an independent financial system.
Although a new single currency is not imminent, the group, which now includes Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Ethiopia, Iran, and Egypt, is progressing toward this goal.
"We are leaving the dollar-dominated space and developing the mechanism and tools for a truly independent financial system," he stated by RIA Novosti.

Zimbabwe launched the gold-backed currency

Zimbabwe has decided to replace its struggling local currency with a new one backed by gold and foreign currencies in an effort to stabilize its economy and combat inflation.
The country reintroduced its own currency in 2019 after a period of dollarization, but it failed to gain public trust, with over 80% of transactions now conducted in foreign currency.
The new currency, named Zimbabwe Gold (ZiG), will circulate alongside other foreign currencies.
The exchange rate for ZiG will be determined by the closing interbank exchange rate on April 5 and the London PM Fix price of gold on April 4.
The Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe described the new currency as "structured," backed by a combination of foreign currency and precious metals, primarily gold, held as reserves by the central bank.
"If we implement these measures, we expect them to have an impact on inflation," central bank governor John Mushayavanhu told reporters.
