The end-of-month debt number for June repeated its seasonal jump. (Same thing has happened each June for many years.) I have recalibrated the clock (at top right) accordingly. Note that it is ticking upward now; but I expect that the shrinking deficits will soon reduce the debt growth to a sustained level below the GDP growth rate—possibly by August. We'll see.
