TLDR:Global M2 is pushing toward new highs, with China, Europe, and the US all recording monthly gains in money supply.China’s M2 has reached $49.96T, and its liquidity flows into global commodities, emerging markets, and risk assets.Germany and the UK have already hit record M2 levels, while Japan remains the only major economy yet to expand.Bitcoin historically follows global M2 with a three-to-four month lag, meaning current gains may not yet be priced in.Global M2 is climbing again across the world’s six largest economies, and the data is pointing in one direction. Central banks have continued to speak about keeping policy tight, yet money supply figures tell a different story. China, Europe, and the United States have all recorded monthly gains. Germany and the United Kingdom have reached new record levels. Japan remains the lone exception in this otherwise synchronized expansion cycle now underway.Money Supply Data Contradicts Central Bank MessagingThe numbers across major economies reflect a clear and consistent shift this month. China leads with an M2 reading of $49.96 trillion, marking a 2.73% rise in one month. Europe follows closely at $19.4 trillion, up 2.71%, while the United States sits at $22.67 trillion, gaining 1%.Crypto market analyst Bull Theory brought attention to this pattern in a recent post. The account stated that central banks are expanding money supply again while still maintaining that policy remains tight. Central banks are expanding money supply again while telling you policy is still tight.Across the six largest economies, the data is moving in the same direction at the same time. – China is at $49.96T and up 2.73% this month– Europe is at $19.4T up 2.71%, – US is at… pic.twitter.com/ni0JYU7C2c— Bull Theory (@BullTheoryio) March 28, 2026Germany and the United Kingdom have already moved past previous highs in their respective money supply readings.M2 is a measure of the total money circulating within an economy. When that figure rises, more capital flows into financial markets and begins chasing available assets. When it falls, liquidity tightens and asset prices tend to adjust lower accordingly.This same dynamic played out between 2020 and 2022. During the 2020–2021 period, aggressive M2 expansion drove rallies across stocks, crypto, and real estate. The 2022 tightening cycle reversed those gains, with nearly all major asset classes correcting sharply. US M2 has since recovered and moved back to all-time highs.China’s Liquidity Expansion Reaches Beyond Its Own BordersChina’s position in this cycle carries weight beyond its domestic market. At close to $50 trillion in M2 with continued monthly growth, China has been consistently adding liquidity to its financial system. That capital does not stay confined to Chinese markets.Through commodities, emerging markets, and risk assets, Chinese liquidity moves into the broader global financial system. This flow contributes to overall financial conditions across regions and tends to push capital toward higher-risk assets over time.Bull Theory also pointed to the historical relationship between global M2 and Bitcoin specifically. According to the account, Bitcoin tends to follow global M2 movements with a lag of roughly three to four months. That pattern, if it holds, means current liquidity growth has not yet fully appeared in crypto prices.Stocks and gold historically track alongside M2 more closely than Bitcoin does. However, all three asset classes tend to respond as liquidity conditions shift over time. With global M2 now pushing toward new highs, market participants are watching whether this expansion follows the same pattern seen in previous cycles.The post Global M2 Hits New Highs as Central Banks Quietly Expand Money Supply Across Six Major Economies appeared first on Blockonomi.
