    Many people don’t realize this, but because of historically strong economic growth & policy choices, the deficit last year actually fell. By $360bn. AND Maybe even more surprising, we're on track to see the federal deficit fall by >$1T this yr, the largest nominal decline ever.

    Worth stepping back and taking stock: A year ago, there were 21.1 million unemployment insurance claims the week of the Thanksgiving holiday. This week, 2.4 million.

    CBO data out yesterday shows that the budget deficit was $571 billion smaller in the first 5 months of FY’22 compared to the prior year - cut by more than half. This marks an important departure from the deficit increases we saw in recent years prior.
