Source & methodology
Grizzly Bulls preserves Treasury’s published total public debt outstanding for each retained Debt to the Penny observation and converts exact source cents to billions of U.S. dollars for display. No component reconciliation is used to replace Treasury’s separately published total.
Dataset: Debt to the Penny.
Unit: Billions of U.S. dollars. Frequency: Daily on Treasury reporting days.
Expected refresh: Each U.S. business day after Treasury publishes Debt to the Penny. History target: 1993 onward.
Revision behavior: Routine source revision policy not documented. Treasury does not document a routine revision schedule for Debt to the Penny. Grizzly Bulls refreshes retained history from the current official FiscalData dataset and preserves the values Treasury publishes for each retained date. Read revision methodology.
Vintage: Latest-known retained history. This page does not preserve prior publication vintages.
