The global dominance of the U.S. dollar could end soon and no longer remain the world’s reserve currency, warns 83-year-old Wall Street analyst Dick Bove. The veteran analyst highlighted the de-dollarization trend kickstarted by BRICS and their ability to convince other developing countries to ditch the U.S. dollar. Bove said that the era of the U.S. dollar is almost finished and the USD remains on its last leg.

“The U.S. dollar is finished as the world’s reserve currency,” said Bove to the New York Times. The analyst recently retired from Wall Street after serving clients for 54 years in the finance industry.

Bove perceived that China could be the main culprit that could bring the U.S. dollar down from its throne. He explained that China’s economy could soon surpass the U.S. as they dominate the manufacturing industry. He warned that the U.S. outsourcing its manufacturing units will soon lead to its decline and make way for developing countries to rise.
