HOW TO READ THE CLOCK

The large debt counter starts at the latest official Treasury observation and moves only during the current session using the recent official debt pace. Per-person, per-adult and per-household figures are derived from official debt and public population denominators. Observed values retain their own source dates.

UNITED STATES ECONOMIC DATA

U.S. debt, household finances and the cost of money — in one view.

US Household Pulse combines official public data into two complementary views. The Household view follows personal saving, inflation pressure, employment, housing finance, consumer credit and household balance-sheet conditions. The Fiscal Clock follows the national debt, federal deficit, receipts, outlays, interest expense and Treasury yields.

The debt clock starts from the latest official Treasury observation and animates only during the current session. Derived population and household measures are labeled separately from observed government data, with source dates retained.
