You think foreign goverments own 100% of treasury's?
I know in China companies that sell their goods in the U.S. and accumulate USD are required to sell those dollars to the Chinese central bank which then buys U.S. treasuries with the dollars. The Chinese companies are not allowed to hold U.S. dollars over a low minimum amount.
At least that was the way the Chinese banking system operated when I worked in Beijing.

I know a ton of those treausry sales were non-government financials institutions for a plethora of reasons.
European banks hold dollars for their customers who have borrowed in dollars and must repay their loans in dollars. But that is a fraction of the economy in Europe

Isn't the euro dollar market like $120T? If you say otherwise then I'm listening to the wrong macro people. Financial institutions were definitely a large portion of the selling. I thought that was pretty generally accepted.
