MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: This empirical note studies the impact of the net budget deficits of all levels of government in the U.S. combined on ten-year Treasury notes for the study period 1955-1984. It is found that this total net budget deficit acted to elevate the yield on ten-year Treasury notes.
