Just the end of the first act,IMHO.

Japanese investors are the largest holders of US government debt after the United Kingdom and Germany. As of Nov. 30, Japanese holdings accounted for 24.7 percent of all Treasury securities held by international investors, down from 25.1 percent as of Aug.31, the figures showed. International investors held a total of $1.289 trillion in Treasury securities as of Nov. 30, Treasury figures showed.
