Reserve

April

<ul>
<li>The Treasury General Account (TGA) at the Federal Reserve represents the government&#8217;s checking account. For further details, see previous <a href="https://cryptoslate.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=317674&amp;action=edit">insight on TGA. </a></li>
<li>At the beginning of the year, the federal reserve was injecting liquidity into the markets and, as a result, drawing down on the U.S. treasury account.</li>
<li>It is now almost depleted; the bounce was tax day on April 18 — which saw roughly $100 billion of tax receipts. The path is not sustainable.</li>
<li>The treasury should stay solvent until the end of May — while tax receipts continue until June.</li>
<li>The spread between the 1-month and 3-month treasury bills signals concern from an investor point of view.</li>
<li>The one-month yield plummeted — showing investors&#8217; demand before a potential default. The spread widened as far as -1.859%.</li>
</ul>
