Core Viewpoint - The recent global fund manager survey indicates that shorting the US dollar has become the most crowded trade, with approximately 34% of respondents holding this view, reflecting a significant shift in market sentiment towards the dollar [1][3]. Group 1: Market Sentiment and Positioning - The survey marks the first time in its history that shorting the dollar has replaced going long on gold as the most crowded trade, indicating a heightened bearish sentiment towards the dollar [3]. - Investor positioning shows a low allocation to the dollar, aligning with the conclusion that shorting the dollar is the most crowded trade. Additionally, US stocks, energy, and consumer staples are also underweighted, reflecting a cautious attitude towards multiple sectors in the US market [3][4]. - 47% of investors believe the dollar is overvalued, down from 61% in June, suggesting that while the perception of overvaluation has decreased, it still holds significant weight in the market [4]. Group 2: Risks and Influencing Factors - 14% of investors view a potential dollar crash due to capital outflows as a significant tail risk, which correlates with the crowded short position on the dollar. A sudden dollar rebound could trigger a wave of short covering, increasing market volatility [4][5]. - The Federal Reserve's monetary policy is a key variable influencing the dollar's trajectory. A potential rate cut by the Fed, while other economies maintain or raise rates, could diminish the dollar's appeal [5]. - Global capital flows are crucial; declining confidence in the US market may lead investors to seek better opportunities elsewhere, potentially exacerbating downward pressure on the dollar [5][6]. Group 3: Global Financial Landscape - The trend of shorting the dollar reflects subtle changes in the global monetary system, as emerging economies rise and the global economy becomes more multipolar. While the dollar's dominance is unlikely to be challenged in the short term, increasing bearish sentiment may encourage countries to diversify away from the dollar in international trade and reserves [6].

当地时间6月11日，欧洲央行发布题为《欧元的国际地位》的年度报告。受多重因素影响，多国央行近 期大举增持黄金，加上金价飙升，黄金已取代欧元，成为全球第二大储备资产，仅次于美元。报告指 出，2024年美元在世界各国外汇储备中占比46%，比前一年小幅下降。 报告称，黄金在各国外汇储备中的占比明显上升，2024年全球储备资产中黄金占比达20%，超过欧元的 16%，仅低于美元的46%，成为全球第二大储备资产。报告还指出，全球央行购金量连续三年超1000 吨，是21世纪10年代年均水平的两倍，购金速度创历史新高。目前全球央行持有的黄金储备已经达到 3.6万吨，接近二战后布雷顿森林体系时期的历史最高水平。而全球央行增持黄金的主要原因是规避地 缘政治风险与分散投资，同时，担心遭到制裁、预期全球货币体系将发生重大变化等因素加速了多国央 行增持黄金的速度。（央视新闻） ...
