US asset exodus accelerates as dollar declines amid historic debt crisis and federal recklessness

• Investors flee U.S. assets as the dollar and Treasury bonds decline sharply.
• The 10-year Treasury yield surges above 4.5%, signaling eroding confidence.
• Deutsche Bank warns of global de-dollarization as foreign nations abandon the U.S. financial system.
• Federal deficit spending spirals while military and political priorities consume resources.
• Gold and silver emerge as stable assets in a collapsing fiat currency system.

The U.S. financial system is unraveling at an unprecedented pace as investors and foreign governments rapidly divest from dollar-denominated assets. Falling Treasury prices pushed the 10-year yield above 4.5% this week, a steep climb from 3.99% just days earlier. The ICE U.S. Dollar Index plummeted to a three-year low, a clear signal that the world is losing faith in America’s fiscal future.

“The market is re-assessing the structural attractiveness of the dollar as the world’s global reserve currency and is undergoing a process of rapid de-dollarization,” warned Deutsche Bank strategist George Saravelos. “Nowhere is this more evident than the continued and combined collapse in the currency and U.S. bond market as this week comes to a close.”

The great American bubble deflates

For decades, the U.S. dollar has propped up the global financial system as the world’s dominant reserve currency. But reckless deficit spending, relentless money printing by the Federal Reserve, and runaway military expenditures have pushed the system to the brink. The national debt now exceeds 31 trillion, though unfunded liabilities like Social Security and Medicare could push real obligations past 200 trillion. While these obligations are set in stone, Donald Trump has mentioned expanding the US military budget to historic levels, further exacerbating the crisis.

Traditional safe-haven assets like Treasury bonds should rise in times of crisis—but now, the opposite is happening. Instead of seeking shelter in U.S. debt, investors are bolting toward gold, silver, and other tangible stores of value. The S&P 500 has dropped 5.4% since early April, and the NASDAQ has plunged to a two-year low, signaling a broader financial reckoning.

Why the dollar is dying

Several forces are driving the exodus:

Endless debt accumulation – Washington continues borrowing trillions with no sustainable plan, trapping future generations under impossible interest burdens.
Federal reserve manipulation – The so-called “plunge protection team” manipulates markets while the Fed inflates asset bubbles with counterfeit money creation.
Foreign distrust – Nations like China, Russia, and India are aggressively reducing dollar exposure, stockpiling gold, and establishing alternative trade settlements.
Political mismanagement – While one party decries wasteful spending, its own militaristic policies funnel vast sums into endless foreign conflicts, further straining budgets.

“U.S. is the bubble. U.S. All of it,” declared BCA Research strategist Marco Papic, emphasizing how American financial dominance is collapsing under its own weight.

The false promise of political salvation

Politicians insist tax reforms or spending cuts will restore fiscal sanity, yet neither party has halted America’s debt-driven decline. Military-industrial complex expenditures—justified as “necessary for national security”—will further cannibalize an already bankrupt system. The real question is this: When collapse is inevitable, will you be holding worthless paper—or real wealth that endures?

As confidence in fiat currencies erodes globally, precious metals remain the last bastion of real wealth retention. The Indian rupee and British pound have hit historic lows, while Argentina battles 100% inflation. Even the euro and yen struggle against economic instability.

This crisis exposes the unsustainable nature of modern financial systems—built on debt, deception, and perpetual war spending. When trust in government-issued money dissolves, hard assets become the only refuge. As the dollar’s value evaporates, gold and silver will reclaim their historic role as real money.

As Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, has long warned: “The only safe assets in a failing financial system are those no government can print at will.”
