Odaily Planet Daily News: According to data from the U.S. Treasury Department, foreign investors' holdings of U.S. Treasury securities fell from $9.371 trillion in May to $9.299 trillion in June, a decrease of approximately $72 billion month-over-month, driven mainly by reductions from Japan, the United Kingdom, and China. However, compared to the same period last year, holdings still increased by 2.3%.

Among them, Japan's holdings of U.S. Treasuries in June decreased by 2.3% month-over-month to $1.116 trillion, remaining the largest overseas holder; the UK's holdings fell by 1% to $939.9 billion. In June, net capital inflows into U.S. Treasury securities on a transaction basis were only $6.8 billion, down from $56.6 billion in May. (Reuters)
