Foreign Demand for Treasuries Is Showing ‘Cracks,' BofA Says
Central banks have been selling Treasuries since March, suggesting that they are diversifying away from dollar assets, according to Bank of America Corp.
Treasuries held by global central banks and other official entities in custody at the New York Federal Reserve fell $17 billion in the week through June 11 on average, extending their declines since late March to $48 billion. In addition, foreign holdings in the Fed's reverse repurchase agreement facility have dropped roughly $15 billion since late March.
