全球范围内，投资者开始抛售美债，转向黄金等替代资产，中国外汇储备中黄金持仓已连续八个月增 加，至2025年6月达到2298.5吨，旨在分散美元风险。 与此同时，国际贸易格局加速调整，金砖国家机制成为去美元化进程的核心引擎。 2025年喀山金砖峰会通过的宣言明确推动本币结算，成员国间贸易美元占比已降至5%以下，中国与俄 罗斯、巴西等伙伴的货币互换规模超过4万亿元，覆盖40个国家和地区。 人民币跨境支付系统CIPS参与机构达1427家，连接109个国家和地区，结算份额在2025年上半年升至 48%，首次超过美元的47%。 这种转变源于美国频繁动用金融工具的副作用，俄罗斯央行3000亿美元资产被冻结的先例，让新兴经济 体警醒，纷纷转向本币互换和区域支付平台，如俄罗斯的SPFS系统已扩展至14国115个实体。 美国经济体系正面临严峻考验，国债总额已突破38万亿美元大关，财政赤字规模在2025年上半年就达到 1.3万亿美元，创下半年度历史第二高纪录。这种债务堆积不仅加剧了利息支出负担，预计2025财年利 息成本将超过1万亿美元，超出国防预算，而且引发市场对美国偿债能力的普遍疑虑。 美联储持续缩表，减少国债持有量，进一步 ...

2025年2月，特朗普政府突然宣布对加拿大商品加征25%的关税，到了8月，这一税率又猛然提升至 35%。更令人震惊的是，特朗普竟然公开表示，要把加拿大吞并成美国的第51个州。这一系列举措让加 拿大人民震惊不已，几乎不敢相信自己听到的消息。特鲁多下台后，新上任的总理卡尼立即采取了不同 的外交策略，将注意力转向中国。11月11日，加拿大外交部长应邀与中国外交部长王毅通话，王毅在通 话中表达了中方愿意与加方加强沟通、恢复各领域合作的积极态度。从那时起，中加关系的格局开始发 生变化。 2025年11月，加拿大农业和农业食品部长率领代表团访华，这一举措显得尤为重要。此次访华的主要目 标是通过实实在在的商业合作，特别是谈论油菜籽和农产品，来逐步破冰。这种低调、务实的方式非常 聪明。中国是加拿大农产品的第二大出口市场，仅2024年，加拿大油菜籽的出口额就超过了240亿元人 民币。面对美国市场的困境，中国市场反而成为了一个重要的救命稻草。农业部长此行不仅是为了解决 经济上的实际问题，也为了避免直接激怒美国，同时向中国传递出愿意恢复合作的信号。 11月11日，加拿大外长阿南德与中国外交部长王毅通话，王毅明确表示，中方愿意加强合 ...

社会治理领域矛盾逐步凸显，移民管理、劳工权益保障、社会信任体系建设均面临多重挑战。美国制造 业占GDP比重已从过往的24%降至10.8%（数据来源：世界银行制造业行业统计），家庭债务规模持续 美国债务问题呈现"温水煮青蛙"式恶化态势，当前债务总额已超33万亿美元（数据来源：美国财政部最 新统计），人头均负债接近10万美元。尽管多次上调债务上限，但信用评级下调风险持续存在，财政压 力不断加剧。据机构预判，未来十年债务规模或突破52万亿美元（数据来源：国际货币基金组织全球债 务报告），如此庞大的债务体量，单靠经济增长难以有效"化解"，财政政策转型已刻不容缓。 制造业复兴进程如同一场"逆流而上的远征"。尽管美国出台芯片法案、提供投资补贴等支持政策，但台 积电亚利桑那工厂、英特尔俄亥俄基地建设进度迟滞，政策实质成效短期难以显现。劳动力缺口持续扩 大、核心技术瓶颈难以突破，成为制约制造业复苏的"达摩克利斯之剑"。市场数据显示，不足四成企业 愿意将海外产能迁回本土（数据来源：美国商会产业调研），大量制造业产能依旧滞留海外，制造业回 流仅停留在口号层面，实际成果有限。 美元主导的传统货币格局正逐步发生结构性变化，金砖机制持 ...

自从荷兰政府在9月底突然对安世荷兰采取强硬手段，强行收购了安世半导体后，全球半导体供应链进入了长达一个多月的动荡期。荷兰政府原本预计的情 况是，这样的行为会带来对中国的压力，但他们没有预料到中国的反应会如此迅速且强烈。甚至连美国，也没有按照荷兰的预期为其站台，反而在与中国的 会谈后，与中国达成了"和解"，并对荷兰的行为保持了距离。 中美会谈之后，考虑到当前国际形势和全球贸易状况，双方决定"休战"一年，以缓解彼此的紧张关系。与此同时，双方就关税等制衡措施达成了初步共识， 决定按下暂停键，其中也包括所谓的"50规则"。然而，作为美国在此问题中的"马前卒"，荷兰在这次会谈中却被完全忽略。对荷兰而言，这意味着美国实际 上将其抛弃。 荷兰原本的依仗是欧盟和美国，但如今欧盟连插话的机会都没有，更不用说支持荷兰了。而美国也没有表示会提供帮助，明显是希望荷兰自己与中国对抗。 然而，荷兰无论在哪个领域都无法与中国相提并论，根本没有任何胜算。 这一条件也在近期由商务部直接说明，荷兰必须恢复之前的状态。这意味着荷兰政府需要撤销之前强行收购安世荷兰的决定，恢复张学政的CEO职务，并返 还属于闻泰科技的安世股权。此外，荷兰还需要恢复向 ...

Group 1: Factors Influencing Gold Prices - The shift in global asset allocation towards "safety first" strategies by central banks, particularly in non-Western countries, has increased the focus on gold as a valuable asset [2][11]. - Historical events and geopolitical changes have historically driven gold prices more than economic and financial variables alone [2][14]. - The current geopolitical tensions, including the Russia-Ukraine conflict and U.S.-China trade relations, have created an environment conducive to rising gold prices [9][11].
