Here is the summary from the latest Sources and Uses:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>During the April - June 2021 quarter,<b>Treasury expects to borrow $463 billion in privately- held net marketable debt, assuming an end-of-June cash balance of $800 billion.</b>The borrowing estimate is $368 billion higher than announced in February 2021, primarily due to the government’s additional response to the COVID-19 pandemic.</li>\n <li>The Treasury now expects $800BN in cash at June 30, just $100BN less than the latest print of $903BN as of the end of April. This means that the Cash flood which saw the TGA balance decline by $700BN since the start of the year is about to slow to a tricke.</li>\n <li>Treasury is assuming a cash balance of approximately $450 billion at the expiration of the debt limit suspension on July 31 based on expected outflows under its cash management policies and consistent with its authorities and obligations, including the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2019. It notes that \"the actual cash balance on July 31 may vary from this assumption based on changes to expected outflows in that period.\"</li>\n <li>During the July - September 2021 quarter,<b>Treasury expects to borrow $821 billion in privately-held net marketable debt, assuming an end-of-September cash balance of $750 billion.</b></li>\n</ul>\n<p>Of note here: the Treasury almost quintupled its borrowing estimate for the quarter through June, and now expects to borrow $1.3 trillion over the second half of the fiscal year to help pay for a raft of fresh pandemic-relief spending. The Treasury’s projections incorporated the impact of Biden’s $1.9 trillion pandemic-relief bill; in its February&nbsp;outlook<b>the Treasury left out any guess on such spending</b>.</p>\n<p>Meanwhile on the cash side, ahead of Monday’s release some strategists speculated that the Treasury may return its cash balance to where it had been when Congress suspended the federal debt limit was suspended, around $130 billion, unless lawmakers lifted or suspended the&nbsp;ceiling again. It now appears that the Treasury will go for a far bigger cash buffer, as officials assumed an increase or suspension of the ceiling in their projection for $750 billion in cash for the end of September.</p>\n<p>In summary, instead of dropping by $929BN through March 31 as it had expected in February, the Treasury cash balance declined by \"only\" $607BN, a difference of $322BN. And in the current quarter, the Treasury now expects a similar decline in cash as last quarter, a drop of $322BN (vs $300BN previously), although since it is starting from a higher base, the June 30 cash balance will be $800BN instead of $500BN. This is summarized in the table below:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/da5dc20eb164926f950995532007b71b\" tg-width=\"514\" tg-height=\"87\"></p>\n<p>Finally, here is the full Sources and Uses Reconciliation, showing changes to not only cash, but financing needs and actual debt balances.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cb17a940849e193c78714d614a512f78\" tg-width=\"880\" tg-height=\"383\"></p>\n<p><i>Source:Treasury Sources and Uses Table</i></p>\n<p>To be sure, not everyone believes the latest projections:&nbsp; “These projections are difficult to rely on,” Jefferies analysts&nbsp;Thomas Simonsand&nbsp;Aneta Markowska&nbsp;wrote in a note Monday. “There is a significant amount of risk surrounding the size and pacing of tax receipts during the quarter and outlays related to the stimulus as well.
