China trimmed U.S. Treasuries, bought gold, and then watched gold hit a record high. If this is “decoupling,” Beijing must be wondering why profit feels so good. For years Washington lectured the world that U.S. debt was the safest asset in human civilization. Now: • European pension funds are quietly divesting • U.S. allies are openly uneasy • Gold is exploding past $5,200 • And China just made a tidy gain shifting out of Treasuries A “safe haven” that shakes every election cycle isn’t a safe haven. In the age of Trump, even safe havens want a safe haven.
