A new global currency; the rise of the East; and peak oil

Episode 126: Alasdair Macleod interviews Erik Townsend – a specialist on “peak oil investing” and a contributor to the popular Financial Sense website.
Erik sees short-term strength in the dollar due to capital flight out of other markets. But long term, America’s problems will mount, and the country will need to address serious issues. This could result in the relatively-peaceful emergence of a new global currency system, but whether the central planners could avoid an inflationary collapse prior to such an event is questionable.
Both men muse on the reactions to the latest Fed comments, and how quickly markets react to perceptions of the stimulus “punch bowl” being withdrawn.
Erik sees a gradual long-term movement of wealth from West to East. The power games that surround this historical dynamic will affect the commodities market in intriguing ways.
The duo finish off with discussion of the energy section – one of Erik’s speciality subjects.

One global currency - It's coming to us so get ready. That is why we are having a hold up with the currency exchanges. The world leaders want the one global currency instead of each country having its own currency. This is in process of getting done. This will make our dinars and dongs nothing but worthless pieces of paper.

How do you figure a global currency when we have BRICS nations and their alliance?

I think they mean a global reserve currency. They are still stuck in the fiat world.

Dinar and dong can't be worthless or the countries would also have worthless currencies.
Not logical.
