DW NOTE
The U.S. national debt now stands at $39.676 trillion — up from $35 trillion in July 2024 — while the fiscal 2026 deficit through June already hit $1.4 trillion despite a supposedly normalised monetary environment and a 4.57% 10-year yield. The government is borrowing faster even as it pays more to service what it already owes, which is the fiscal equivalent of driving toward a wall with your foot on the accelerator.
