Bloomberg: As allies significantly reduce their holdings of U.S. Treasury bonds, how much longer can America’s financing miracle endure?

Bloomberg: U.S. allies significantly cut purchases of American Treasury securities, with declines reaching 60%, led by Asian regions.

Analysis shows that, in the first eight months of 2026, countries and regions most closely aligned with the United States recorded net acquisitions of U.S. Treasuries (excluding short-term Treasury bills) amounting to just $174.3 billion—lowest for the same period since 2021—and a drop of over 60% compared to the previous year.

This indicates that even Washington’s closest partners are no longer as reliably financing America’s fiscal deficits as they once did, reflecting a notable shift in global demand dynamics for U.S. Treasury debt.
