Europe just sold almost $9B in U.S. Treasuries, and this move wasnât about profit. Swedenâs AP7 led with $8.8B, followed by Denmark, challenging the long-held belief that U.S. debt is untouchable.
This feels more political than financial. De-dollarization was once limited to BRICS, but now even Europe â holding around $1.6T in U.S. debt â is showing cracks in confidence.
Markets are starting to react to geopolitics faster than economics, and that shift matters.
