Strategic debt increase supports growth, maintains robust cash reserves for Q3 2025.
The U.S. Department of the Treasury announced a confident $1.007 trillion borrowing plan for privately-held net marketable debt in the July-September 2025 quarter, ensuring an $850 billion cash balance to fuel economic momentum.
Unveiled July 28, 2025, this $453 billion increase from April’s estimate reflects proactive adjustments to a lower starting cash balance and anticipated cash flow needs.
The October-December 2025 forecast projects $590 billion in borrowing, maintaining the same robust cash reserve.
In Q2 2025, borrowing was a lean $65 billion, with a $457 billion end-of-quarter cash balance, showcasing fiscal agility.
This strategic borrowing supports a resilient economy with 2.3% GDP growth, low 4.1% unemployment, and stable 2.4% inflation.
The Treasury’s Quarterly Refunding details, due July 30, 2025, will guide markets, reinforcing confidence in America’s financial strength amid global uncertainties.
