🚨 BREAKING: Global investors are still heavily stacking US debt, and the numbers are getting wild
Foreign holdings of US Treasuries jumped by +$200 billion in February, hitting a record $9.49 trillion 💰
Most of it isn’t short-term hype either. Around $7.76 trillion (84%) is parked in long-term US government bonds, showing strong confidence in America’s debt market.
Over the past year alone, foreign holdings have climbed by +$587 billion 📈
Here’s how the big players moved:
🇯🇵 Japan, still the largest foreign holder, added +$14 billion, pushing its total to $1.24 trillion. This is the highest level since 2022 and marks 13 purchases in the last 14 months as Japanese investors continue chasing better yields abroad.
🇬🇧 The UK also increased its position by +$17 billion, reaching $897 billion, its second-highest level ever.
🇨🇳 China slightly reduced its holdings by -$1 billion, now sitting at $693 billion, continuing its slow adjustment strategy.
Bottom line: despite global uncertainty, demand for US debt is still strong, and international investors aren’t stepping away anytime soon 🌍
