The U.S. Department of the Treasury today announced its current estimates of net marketable borrowing for the October – December 2013 and January – March 2014 quarters:

During the October – December 2013 quarter, Treasury expects to issue $266 billion in net marketable debt, assuming an end-of-December cash balance of $140 billion.  This borrowing estimate is $32 billion higher than announced in July 2013.  The increase in borrowing relates primarily to an increase to the end-of-December cash balance assumption [1], offset by lower outlays and higher net issuance of state and local government securities (SLGS) due to the reopening of the SLGS subscription window.
