US Gov’t Debt in 2010: $1 Trillion New Issuance + $2 Trillion Roll-Over
In 2010 the US government will need to sell $1.14 trillion in bonds to finance the federal budget deficit.
In addition, $2.0 trillion of short-term debt come due in 2010.
That makes a cool $3 trillion in supply of US government debt, in line with 2009 figures: €2.6 trillion in new issuance and €0.5 trillion of roll-over.
See my Google spreadsheet on US Government Debt by maturity date for more details.
