By Daniel Kruger, Bloomberg | Updated on December 17, 2013

China, the largest foreign creditor to the U.S., increased its ownership of Treasuries in October to almost the record level reached in July 2011 after the Federal Reserve unexpectedly opted not to slow bond buying.

Holdings rose $10.7 billion, or 0.8 percent, to $1.304 trillion, according to Treasury Department data released yesterday. China held a record $1.314 trillion in July 2011. Total foreign holdings of Treasuries rose $600 million, or 0.01 percent, in October to $5.65 trillion.
