Ray Dalio worries about U.S. Treasury bonds losing appeal—Is his concern truly about market demand, or is it about being left holding the bag?

U.S. media: Ray Dalio, founder of Bridgewater Associates, said the U.S. Treasury market could face pressure from reduced demand by China and Japan.

As one of the largest foreign creditors to the United States, shifts in the holdings of U.S. debt by China and Japan may affect the stability of this market. Dalio noted that approximately one-third of U.S. debt is supported by foreign capital, a significant portion of which originates from China and Japan.

Since the beginning of this year, the U.S. Treasury market has experienced considerable volatility. If major overseas investors reduce their appetite for purchasing U.S. debt, it could further increase financing pressures on the United States and impact bond yields and market confidence.
