China increased US treasury investments as trade war escalated

In February, China’s U.S. Treasury holdings elevated to 784.3 billion USD as it responded to a 10% tariff on imports from the U.S. This situation highlights the ongoing economic tension between the two nations.

Lou Brien, a market strategist, noted that such financial maneuvers by China and Japan might reflect a strategy of self-preservation, considering both countries have significant stakes in U.S. Debt.
