Over the past year, foreign holders of U.S. Treasury securities have collectively reduced their positions, signaling a notable shift in global financial strategy. According to data from the U.S. Treasury’s TIC report, multiple nations, including China, Japan, Belgium, and Switzerland, have significantly trimmed their holdings, contributing to a broader pattern of diversification away from U.S. debt.

Key Trends in the Treasury Sell-Off
China led the reduction, offloading over $85 billion in U.S. Treasuries, continuing its long-term strategy of decreasing reliance on U.S. debt.
Japan, the largest foreign holder of U.S. Treasuries, also reduced its holdings by nearly $19 billion, possibly reacting to rising U.S. interest rates and a need to support the yen.
Other major sellers included Belgium, Switzerland, and the Cayman Islands, indicating shifts in investment strategies and liquidity adjustments by institutional investors.
The U.K. was a notable exception, increasing its holdings by $22.5 billion, possibly as part of portfolio adjustments by financial institutions.
Overall, the total sell-off across all listed foreign holders exceeded $178 billion, reflecting concerns about higher U.S. interest rates, currency risks, and geopolitical uncertainties.
