    Source: U.S. Treasury
    Research Date: 7.2.2013
    As of January 2013, $5.6 trillion or approximately 47% of the debt held by the public was owned by foreign investors, the largest of which were the People’s Republic of China at just over $1.2 trillion.
    So my figure was the foreign owned debt which, as of last year, was 1.2 of 5.6, or 21.4%.

    $1.263 of $17.5 trillion is only some 7%,still I think they could crash us if they weren't so dependent on our consumption.
