Chinese Yuan Replaces Euro as Second Most Used Trade Transaction Currency

Swift reports that the renmimbi has passed the euro as a currency used in world trade. In January 2012, the renmimbi accounted for 1.89% of world trade. It was up to 8.66% in October 2013. The euro was 7.87%. This is a very dynamic rate of change.

I make bold to suggest that the abuse of the dollar by the Fed is producing unwanted consequences, which may possibly snowball.
