Thanks for the link....this does not indicate the duration of the debt, long or short term, nor does it show the amount of debt retired....don't want to make this a major project, was curious if anyone already had the data....wanted to see if what I saw while perusing those stocks was indicative of the market as a whole.

Thanks again for responding.

The apparent stopping of debt growth at about a constant 16 percent of
GDP looks like a healthy development.

The GOV. will not drain funds from the private sector for GDP growth.

Note that GDP has grown about 4 times in 20 years while Debt grew about 2 times; also appears to be a good thing.

Thanks LEE, for evaluating total business debt the numbers are not a complete picture of the debt floated to US businesses as they do not calculate the public debt issued by the US corporations.

A more sensitive number will be - public debt + bank debt - over the years and as related to the GDP.

Could you retrive this data?

Thanks again.
