U.S. Treasuries previously attracted significant allocations as a safe asset; this record low is similar to investor behavior in a high interest rate environment where they avoid duration risk.
The Fed's policy path and increased fiscal supply are jointly suppressing demand, leading institutions to shift towards higher return opportunities.
Compared to the historically low interest rate era, we are currently in a phase of structural decline in Treasury attractiveness, affecting the global capital allocation landscape.
This essentially reflects regulatory changes and capital concentration: high rates and supply pressures are reshaping the Treasury market, concentrating capital towards risk assets or short-term instruments, testing the sustainability of U.S. debt and driving global fund rebalancing.
