U.S. Government Debt Relief May Require a Significant Dollar Depreciation, Reminiscent of Argentina's Inflation Scenario, According to Luke Gromen
In the world of finance, there's a complex picture emerging for the US dollar in mid-2025. Macro strategist Luke Gromen, in his latest analysis, has highlighted some underlying concerns that could potentially impact the dollar's value over the medium to long term.
According to Gromen, the growing US national debt and the potential devaluation of US sovereign debt could negatively impact the US dollar's value. He believes excessive government borrowing increases risks of inflationary pressures and undermines confidence in the dollar as the safe global reserve currency.
Despite these concerns, the US dollar has shown resilience. The dollar has experienced volatility, with periods of weakening due to expectations of Federal Reserve interest rate cuts and soft inflation data, but also episodic strength supported by safe-haven demand amid geopolitical uncertainties. The US dollar index (DXY) traded around 97 to 103.6 in mid-2025, indicating a mid-range but fluctuating value influenced by Fed policy, trade tensions, and global capital flows.
Gromen's outlook underscores a structural vulnerability in the dollar from growing US debt and potential sovereign debt devaluation, which could weigh on the dollar's value in the longer term. However, in mid-2025, the dollar remains relatively resilient, influenced heavily by Fed rate outlooks, trade policy developments, and geopolitical risk, resulting in a mixed and somewhat cautious USD outlook rather than an outright collapse.

Additionally, a crypto analytics firm has identified potential sell-side pressure for Bitcoin, as ancient BTC is springing to life.
