The Sirius Report
Through 20 years of diligent research I have gained a unique insight and understanding of the ongoing geopolitical shift towards a multipolar world. I have extensive knowledge of Eurasia, South America, Africa and the U.S.. I am able to assess geopolitical events and provide a very clear understanding of what those developments mean in the context of the vast global changes now unfolding.

US HOUSEHOLDS
US households hold 52% of their total financial assets in equities which is a record high and worryingly more than double the level seen since the 2008 Western financial crisis and even 5% higher than levels seen during the dot-com bubble fiasco.

US DECOUPLING
Increasingly, many governments and businesses are quietly trying to decouple themselves from any reliance on the US. That would include military spending and in corporations. One example of that is the Port of Hamburg, which actually doesn’t want to use US technology platforms anymore because it doesn’t want sensitive information being processed through infrastructure. The US indirectly has access. In terms of US tech companies, many European clients are stressing that America has become a less reliable partner due to the pressure the US government can put on companies to demand information. In general, policies such as tariffs, export controls and sanctions as well as stimulus measures such as the Inflation Reduction Act are beginning to unnerve even US allies. They’re also deeply worried about internal politics.
ASIA AND THE DOLLAR
Asia is making major moves away from the US due to concerns over US geopolitical policies, major shifts in monetary policy and a massive amount of hedging now taking place. These factors are driving de-dollarisation across the entire region.
ASEAN countries are committed to significantly increasing the use of local currencies for trade and investment. This is part of their economic community strategic plan running through to 2030. The goal is to reduce the shocks associated with exchange rate fluctuations by promoting local currency settlements and strengthening regional payment connectivity, all outside the US dollar system.
At the same time, investors and market officials are starting to believe the dollar has been over leveraged and weaponised in trade negotiations. In response, these countries are standing up, reassessing their heavily USD-weighted portfolios, and taking action.
Individuals and businesses are converting US dollar savings back into local currencies,
