Oil's four-year bull run to +$140 per barrel has increased the wealth of 'petrodollar' nations, and is about set to propel another shift, this time in the bond market.
Petroleum-exporting nations, such as Saudi Arabia and Russia are set to become the biggest creditor nations to the U.S. Government, Bloomberg News reported Monday.
Holdings of petrodollar nations increased 44% to $510 billion through April, Bloomberg News reported Monday -- an increase pace that's set to displace Japan, which holds the largest amount of U.S. Treasuries, at $592.2 billion.
Oil rose about 20 cents to $145.28 per barrel in late Monday afternoon trading.
