根据美国财政部数据,中国7月份减持美国国债154亿美元,持有总额下降至6180亿美元,这是自2008年以来的最低水平1。此举使中国成为美债第3大持有国,排在日本和英国之后1。
从更长期的趋势看,中国在过去13个月中累计出脱美债1134亿美元,减幅达15.5%1。业内人士认为,这一系列举措反映了中国长期多元化外汇储备的政策考量,即逐步降低美元资产在储备中的比重1。同期,日本7月份也出脱128亿美元美债,持有总额为1.1万亿美元,而英国则增持584亿美元美债至9983亿美元1。全球范围内,海外持有美债总额在7月份为9.25万亿美元,较6月下降504亿美元1。
China offloaded $15.4 billion in US Treasury securities during July, bringing its total holdings to $618 billion, marking the lowest level since 2008.1 This reduction solidifies China's position as the third-largest holder of US government debt, trailing only Japan and the United Kingdom.1
The divestment reflects an ongoing strategy spanning thirteen months, during which China has reduced its US Treasury portfolio by $113.4 billion, representing a 15.5 percent decline.1 Analysts attribute the sustained reduction to China's long-term policy of diversifying its foreign exchange reserves and gradually decreasing its exposure to dollar-denominated assets.1 Meanwhile, other major holders showed divergent trends in July: Japan sold $12.8 billion worth of Treasuries, holding $1.1 trillion in total, while the United Kingdom purchased $58.4 billion, raising its holdings to $998.3 billion.1 Overall foreign holdings of US Treasury securities decreased by $50.4 billion month-over-month to $9.25 trillion in July.1
