Japan threatens to use its vast holdings of U.S. Treasuries as leverage in tariff disputes.
Japan's Finance Minister Katsunobu Kato suggested that Japan's large holdings of U.S. Treasuries, totaling $1.13 trillion, could be used as leverage in trade negotiations with the U.S. over tariffs.
While Kato did not threaten to sell these bonds, the comment signals a potential risk to the U.S., as Japan and China are the largest holders of U.S. government debt.
This comes amid tensions due to proposed tariffs on Japanese goods.
