Denmark’s US Treasury Holdings Fall to 14-Year Low

Denmark’s US Treasury Holdings Fall to 14-Year Low

The country’s holdings dropped to around $9 billion, marking a 30% decline over the past year and more than halving since the 2016 peak.

Fact Check
The assessment is based on two highly relevant sources that corroborate the claim. A financial news article from Yahoo Finance confirms that Denmark's holdings of U.S. Treasuries are at 'record lows.' While this source does not specify the exact timeframe, the term 'record low' strongly supports the sentiment of the statement. A second source, a social media post from a financial commentary account, directly and explicitly states that Denmark's holdings are at a '14-year low.' Although this second source has low authority, it provides a specific detail that is consistent with the information from the more credible Yahoo Finance article. There is no conflicting evidence among the provided sources. The other three sources are entirely irrelevant to the topic of national holdings of U.S. debt and therefore do not impact the conclusion. The consistency between the two relevant sources provides high confidence that the statement is true.
