As of early 2026, the narrative surrounding the “Trust Deficit” of the US Dollar (USD) has shifted from academic debate to a central theme in global markets. Here is a concise breakdown of the situation in English:
1. The “Erosion of Trust” (Current Status)
The decline in USD confidence isn’t just about price; it’s about functionality. Investors are questioning the Dollar’s role as the “Risk-Free” anchor:
- Weaponization Risk: The use of financial sanctions has pushed many nations (the “Global South”) to seek alternatives to the SWIFT system.
- Fiscal Credibility: With US National Debt surpassing $37 trillion in 2026, the long-term solvency of the Treasury is being openly debated in G20 summits.
- The Gold Alternative: Central banks have moved from being net sellers to massive net buyers of gold, treating it as the “Ultimate Reserve” to hedge against USD volatility.
2. Why the USD may continue to fall
Financial analysts generally point to three “Gravity” factors pulling the Dollar down:
- Narrowing Yield Spreads: As the Fed moves toward a more neutral monetary policy, the interest rate advantage that once sucked global capital into the US is vanishing.
- Structural Diversification: More oil and commodity contracts are now being settled in Yuan (CNY), Euros (EUR), or even Digital Assets, reducing the mandatory demand for Greenbacks.
- Inflationary Pressures: If the US fails to control its fiscal deficit, the “real” purchasing power of the Dollar will continue to bleed out.
3. The 2026 Market Sentiment
| Indicator | Trend | Market Sentiment |
|---|---|---|
| DXY (Dollar Index) | Trending Lower | Bearish to Neutral |
| Gold Prices | Record Highs | Bullish (The “Anti-Dollar”) |
