US Treasurys Face Potential $1.7T EU "Dump" Amid Greenland Dispute
According to reports, a dispute between European leaders and Washington over Greenland could lead to the EU using U.S. Treasurys as leverage. This action could test the market's capacity to absorb sales and impact the dollar, U.S. credit conditions, and crypto liquidity. The Financial Times suggests Treasurys might be used as countermeasures, focusing on execution mechanics and timing. As of November 2025, foreign investors held $9.355 trillion in U.S. Treasurys, with $3.922 trillion held by foreign official holders. Data indicates that Treasurys attributed to Belgium, Luxembourg, France, Ireland, and Germany totaled approximately $1.733 trillion, representing an upper-bound reference for major EU reporting and custody jurisdictions. The development could unfold through policy signaling and portfolio adjustments over time.
