Recently, the US Dollar Index DXY has experienced significant fluctuations, dropping nearly 40 points to 98.21. Danish pension fund Akademiker Pension has decided to fully withdraw from US Treasury bonds, indicating doubts about the US creditworthiness and reflecting a reassessment of the US economy by international large-scale funds. This trend is worth the attention of investors.

【Blockchain Rhythm】 Recently, the US Dollar Index DXY experienced significant volatility — a sharp decline of nearly 40 points in a short period, with a low of 98.21.

What’s even more interesting is the movement of funds behind the scenes. A large Danish pension fund, Akademiker Pension, recently announced it would completely exit the US Treasury market. This institution still held a $100 million US debt position at the end of December last year, but now has decided to withdraw entirely. The fund’s chief investment officer was quite frank: the US is “basically no longer a good credit candidate.”

From this perspective, it’s not just the technical pressure on the US Dollar Index, but also a reflection of international large-scale capital re-evaluating the US credit situation. The movement of institutional investors often leads the market, and this collective withdrawal signal is worth paying attention to.

U.S. debt has become a hot potato, even pension funds are starting to run away. Is it our turn as retail investors to take the fall? Laughing out loud, even the Chief Investment Officer of the U.S. said their credit has collapsed. This is truly an industry conscience. Big funds are fleeing, retail investors are still asking when to get in. This is called the art of the market. The dollar index plummeted, my assets are crashing, no problem. Looking at this trend, institutions are exiting early, and we are only waking up late. This is the fate of retail investors. They are willing to withdraw one hundred million dollars, and you are still holding on to that little yield from U.S. bonds? The big players are playing a game that we can't afford to join. International big funds are leaving first out of respect, and we continue to take the bait. This is called participating in globalization.

Large funds are starting to withdraw, and this signal won't be wrong. When institutions are bottom-fishing, we follow the trend; when institutions are retreating, we need to be even more cautious.

U.S. debt is about to cool down, even pension funds are fleeing... Is this really the prelude to a credit collapse?
