⚠️🇺🇸 Moody's has downgraded the US credit rating from AAA to AA1 for the first time since 2011.
📉 Reason: growth of public debt and the cost of servicing it.
Moody's predicts that the US public debt will grow to 154% of GDP by 2035.
‼️ According to FRED, the federal debt is already 121% of GDP.
And if you take into account all the total debt - external, domestic, private and public - it exceeds 330% of GDP.
