Covers Treasury securities, agency bonds, corporate bonds and corporate equity, each with holdings, net U.S. purchases/sales and a valuation-change breakdown. Pass "country" for one country's recent history (e.g. "Japan", "China"); omit it for a ranking of the largest foreign holders of U.S. securities in a given month (default: most recently published). Monthly cadence, published with roughly a 6-week lag. Answers "how much does Japan hold in US securities", "who are the biggest foreign holders of US stocks and bonds", "has China been buying or selling US Treasuries". Input parameters: - `country` (string): Country name, e.g. "Japan", "China", "United Kingdom". Omit for a cross-country ranking. - `limit` (number): Ranking mode: how many countries to return (1-50, default 20). Country mode: how many recent months of history (1-60, default 12). - `month` (string): YYYY-MM. Omit for the most recently published month. ### `tic_major_treasury_holders` (~297 tokens) The "Major Foreign Holders of Treasury Securities" ranking from U.S. Department of the Treasury's Treasury International Capital (TIC) System, Major Foreign Holders of Treasury Securities table — the figure financial press cites as " holds $X of US Treasuries." Covers the ~20 largest individual foreign holders plus an "All Other" bucket, the grand total, and the foreign-official-sector split (central banks/governments vs. private holders), in USD billions. Pass "country" for one country's recent months; omit it for the full ranking in a given month (default: most recently published). Only the largest ~20 holders are broken out individually — a smaller holder is not in this table even though it may appear in tic_foreign_holdings. Answers "how much Treasury debt does China hold", "who are the top foreign holders of US government debt". Input parameters: - `country` (string): One of the ~20 individually-broken-out countries, e.g. "Japan", "China". Omit for the full ranking. - `limit` (number): Ranking mode: how many countries to return (1-25, default 21, i.e. all of them). Country mode: how many recent months of history (1-13, default 13, the full window the table publishes). - `month` (string): YYYY-MM. Omit for the most recently published month. ## Diagnostics Captured diagnostic sections: Provenance, Dependencies.
