The U.S. national debt has exceeded $33 trillion for the first time, with about $10 trillion accumulated since the pandemic. The debt is projected to exceed $50 trillion by the end of the decade if no substantial measures are taken. Federal programs are costing more than expected, with the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 and the Employee Retention Credit cited as examples. Prudent investors are concerned about the rising national debt, while the 'momo crowd' is urged to ignore the debt and buy stocks. Positive money flows are observed in Apple, Amazon, Alphabet, Meta Platforms, Microsoft, NVIDIA, and Tesla, while mixed flows are seen in SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust and Invesco QQQ Trust Series 1.
