So far, China and Japan are still the two major overseas holders of U.S. government bonds.
Foreign investors sold 33.84 billion U.S. long-term Treasury bonds in May and purchased 16.95 billion U.S. dollars in April.
Japan's holdings of U.S. government bonds jumped to $1.101 trillion in May, the first time since August 2017, and higher than $1.064 trillion in April.
Japan's position growth is also the largest since July 2013.
China's U.S. Treasury bond holdings fell for the third consecutive month to $1.11 trillion, the lowest since May 2017 and $1.113 trillion the previous month.
China's U.S. Treasury bond holdings have attracted much attention because of speculation about whether China will retaliate against the tariff threat imposed by U.S. President Trump.
"This month's decline in China's position and the slight decline in the past two months have been closely watched as a result of ongoing trade disputes, but we don't think this decline is enough to worry about for the time being," Tom Simons, senior currency market analyst at Jefferies, wrote in a research report.

Among other major countries, the size of U.S. government bonds held by Britain rose to an eight-year high of $323.1 billion in May.
At the same time, overseas accounts generally shed $14.6 billion in long-term U.S. securities and purchased $40.8 billion in April.
Foreign investors also cut their U.S. holdings by $1.45 billion in May, a modest amount compared with earlier sales this year.
