đ¨ CHINA JUST FIRED THE FIRST SHOT IN A GLOBAL RESET?
The Shanghai Futures Exchange saw trading disruptions.
At the same time, headlines are swirling about China reducing U.S. Treasury exposure.
Some people see isolated events.
Others see a pattern.
Hereâs the framework being discussed:
China has been steadily reducing U.S. Treasury holdings over the past decade
China has been a consistent buyer of physical gold
China is also known to hold a meaningful amount of Bitcoin via state-related channels
That combination suggests one thing:
Diversification away from dollar-denominated assets.
Not panic.
Not collapse.
Strategic positioning.
Why this matters
When a major holder trims Treasuries:
Global collateral tightens
Funding conditions shift
Volatility increases
Treasuries are not just âbonds.â
They are the backbone of global leverage.
If collateral tightens, leverage compresses.
When leverage compresses, markets move fast.
But hereâs the nuance
This doesnât automatically mean:
Immediate collapse
Dollar death
New world order tomorrow
Major reserve shifts happen slowly.
Markets adjust over time, not overnight.
What we might be seeing is gradual repositioning:
Reduce foreign sovereign risk
Increase hard asset exposure
Prepare for more fragmented global capital flows
Thatâs not conspiracy.
Thatâs geopolitical risk management.
Bottom line
Markets are still trading short-term narratives.
States think in decades.
Watch:
Treasury yields
Gold reserve data
Capital flow trends
FX volatility
Big structural changes donât announce themselves loudly.
They show up in flows first, headlines later.
Stay analytical. Not emotional.
