Treasury Department predicted the U.S. government’s borrowing needs in
the second half of this year will jump to the most since last decade’s
financial crisis as the nation’s fiscal health deteriorates despite a
strong economy.

department expects to issue $329 billion in net marketable debt from
July through September, the fourth-largest total for that quarter on
record and higher than the $273 billion estimated in April, Treasury
said in a report Monday.
