The world's biggest bond fund, Pimco's $137 billion Total Return Fund, cut its market value weighting in government-related debt to 54 percent at the end of July from 63 percent at the end of June, Pimco data showed on Friday.
The category of government-related debt refers not only to nominal Treasurys, but also to Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (TIPS), agency debt, interest rate swaps, Treasury futures and options and FDIC guaranteed corporate securities, Pimco said.
