🚨Huge Setback to USA by Brazil: Treasuries Dumped, Soybean Trade De-Dollarized After India cut its exposure to US Treasuries, Brazil has taken an even more aggressive step, both financially and strategically. Massive US Treasury Sell-Off Between October 2024 and October 2025, Brazil sold USD 61.1 billion worth of US Treasury bonds, nearly 27% of its total holdings. This is the highest percentage reduction globally, surpassing India (~21%) and China (less than 10%), despite China’s larger absolute number. Notably, both India and Brazil sold Treasuries when US yields were high, a period usually attractive for central banks, highlighting a strategic, not financial, decision. Brazil is redirecting reserves into gold. In just three months, it accumulated 43 tonnes, taking total gold reserves to around 172 tonnes, mirroring strategies already adopted by India and China. Bigger Shock: Soybean Trade Without the Dollar The most damaging move for the US comes from trade. Brazil, the world’s largest soybean producer and exporter, and China, the world’s largest soybean importer (60–66% of global imports), have begun settling soybean trade in local currencies, bypassing the US dollar entirely. This prove that currency swap lines and alternative payment systems are already operational. Treasury dumping, gold accumulation, local-currency trade, and new BRICS financial institutions together point to one conclusion: de-dollarization is now active policy, not rhetoric. Despite repeated warnings from Donald Trump, BRICS nations are accelerating efforts to bypass the dollar.
