purely from an academic point, why does rising oil price weaken the greenback though oil is paid in USD ?

Posted by admin
oil price
Just Me asked:


1) because of imported inflation, as US is import reliant and rising oil prices leads to imported inflation, since imports are now more expensive.

2) Also, since oil from OPEC is paid for in USD, what is the impact of rising oil prices on USD? lesser demand for oil leading to lesser demand for USD?

am i correct on both points, or is my reasoning flawed?
