Gazprom prépare une émission symbolique d'obligations en Yuan chinois !

It's On: Gazprom Prepares "Symbolic" Bond Issue In Chinese Yuan
by Tyler Durden on 04/10/2014

Curious what the fate of the petrodollar is? Look no farther than this Interfax update blasted moments ago by Bloomberg: "Gazprom Considers 'Symbolic' Yuan Bond Issue, Interfax Says."

Bloomberg adds that the gas giant is considering proposals from potential organizers to market bonds in yuan, Interfax reports, citing people with knowledge of the matter.

•Gazprom unlikely be able to gain more than $300m due to mkt volume, newswire reports
•No mandates, deal timeline yet
•Issue may add new investors, become a “topical” public relations act amid tensions with U.S., EU
Well, yes. It's called "symbolic" for a reason. More importantly, it is a symbol of what happens when one can "create" money de novo without the presence of the world's increasingly defunct reserve currency, either secured by gas or by future cash flows, i.e., unsecured.

... and the New New Normal flow of funds will suddenly become clear -

1.Gazprom delivering gas to China.
2.China Gazprom paying in Yuan (convertible into Rubles)
3.Gazprom funding itself increasingly in Yuan.
4.Russia buying Chinese goods and services in Yuan (convertible into Rubles)

And all of this with the US banker cartel completely disintermediated courtesy of the glaring absence of the USD in any of the above listed steps, or as some may call it: from the Petrodollar to the Gas-o-yuan (something 40 central banks have already figured out... just not the Fed).
