Just a couple of graphs to show which foreign countries have most increased their holdings of US Treasury securities.
The UK seems the odd man out, bearing in mind its own financial difficulties, but it is widely suspected that much of the UK's holdings are cat's-paw transactions on behalf of China.
INVESTMENT DISCLOSURE: None. Still in cash (and index-linked National Savings Certificates), and missing all those day-trading opportunities.
