~$9.6 trillion of U.S. marketable government debt will mature over the next 12 months, the most ever.
That’s roughly 1/3 of ALL outstanding public debt that needs to be refinanced. Most of it was originally issued when rates were near zero. Now it refinances at 4–5%. The math: even a 2% average rate increase on $9.6T = ~$192B in added annual interest costs alone. For context, net interest on U.S. debt is already on pace to exceed $1 trillion/year in 2026, more than the defense budget. The largest refinancing wall in history is here. Source: @NoLimitGains on X
