The US National Debt: Debt or Alive

Send us a text

How risky is the national debt? What's the different between the deficit and the national debt? How long until the debt becomes a problem? What can we do about it? Are the solutions only political? As an investor, how does the increase in the national debt impact how you allocate capital today? I dig into all of these questions and more with Chris Brigham, a Senior Research Analyst at Bernstein, who has led much of a research on the US national debt.
