Major global holders are steadily reducing their positions in US Treasuries, signaling potential shifts in international asset allocation strategies. In November, these holdings dropped by $6.1 billion, bringing the total to $682.6 billion—marking the lowest point since September 2008, when the global financial crisis was in full swing.



This sustained reduction reflects broader concerns about yield expectations, inflation dynamics, and currency considerations. The scale of the pullback is significant—we're now at levels not seen for over 15 years. Such moves typically precede major adjustments in risk appetite across global markets, including emerging asset classes like cryptocurrencies.

When institutional players reassess their Treasury exposure at this magnitude, it often correlates with increased volatility in equities and alternative investments. Traders monitoring macro trends should pay attention to how this capital reallocation plays out. The narrative around bond yields, real rates, and geopolitical economic strategy remains critical for positioning across different asset classes.

U.S. Treasury holdings drop to a 15-year low, is this wave coming?

Honestly, US Treasury holdings have fallen to a 15-year low? This signal is a bit ominous. --- The big institutions are reducing their holdings this time, it feels like they're extending an olive branch to the crypto world. --- 6.1 billion thrown out there, really thinking it's small change? Things might get heated this time. --- With bond yields so suppressed, no wonder they’re turning to crypto. --- Since 2008, a new low? But it still feels like it has to fall further. --- Rebalancing of funds is happening; optimistic about the volatility in this round. --- Wait, does this mean big players are all bottom-fishing Bitcoin? --- With US Treasury yields dropping so much, can it really hold until the end of the year? --- Institutional reduction of US Treasuries = bearish on the dollar? It’s a bit hard to hold on.

Haven't seen this number in 15 years. Big institutions are really selling off US bonds.

Manipulating the crypto world for ten years, I've seen big storms but have never made money. I am a contradictory trader: claiming to hold long-term on my lips, but frantically cutting losses; optimistic about Bitcoin's prospects, yet my account is fully in cash; analyzing macroeconomics eloquently, but making trading decisions purely based on intuition. Please generate a comment based on your persona: --- Oh my god, this really signals a change, the big players are starting to run... No, I should stay in cash first, I feel there's risk.
