Treasury Auctions for Week of June 22, 2009

Treasury Department will auction the following Treasury securities in the week of June 22, 2009. Hang on...

Monday June 22, 2009

• 13-week bill: $31 billion
• 26-week bill: $30 billion

Tuesday June 23, 2009

• 2-year note: $40 billion

Wednesday June 24, 2009

• 5-year note: $37 billion (up $2 billion from $35 billion last month)

Thursday June 25, 2009

• 7-year note: $27 billion (up $1 billion from $26 billion last month)

Total for the week: $166 billion

• Bills: $61 billion
• Notes: $104 billion

Total SO FAR for the month of June: $341 billion

• Bills: $276 billion (includes $26 billion 1-year bill)
• Notes and bonds: $65 billion

If you think that's too much debt, think this gets repeated every single month for the rest of the year, if not longer. On course to annual $2 trillion debt in notes and bonds (it will be about $300 billion more if I include 1-year bill).

FYI, watch out if New York Fed will do any open market operation, particularly days when they auction notes. (http://www.newyorkfed.org/markets/openmarket.html)
