According to the US Treasury Department, the Federal Government has accumulated $33.70 trillion in debt. Is it time to sound the alarm?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course not. This is America baby!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jokes aside, government spending has skyrocketed. From FY 2019 to FY 2021, the government&#8217;s attempt to soften the blow from the pandemic through tax cuts and its stimulus program led to a 50% increase in spending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Simultaneously, GDP has not been able to keep up. Currently sitting at 123%, the debt to GDP ratio is unfavorably skewed on the debt side, indicating that the US has almost a fourth more of debt than its total economic output can handle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that the US is getting a little strapped for cash, it needs to carefully choose where to spend its money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s where Congress comes in, but disagreements between Democrats and Republicans on spending is delaying the passing of bills that are necessary to keep the government running.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Absent some kind of new funding bill, the government could shut down by Saturday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Government shutdowns are old news to this market and in the past 10 since the 1980s, the S&amp;P on average has surprisingly seen positive returns in the following month.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1100\" height=\"433\" data-src=\"\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/SP-price-movement-11-14-23_contrib-Toggle-AI-1100x433.png\" alt=\"S&amp;P 500 (SPX) price movement after previous 10 episodes, Toggle AI\" class=\"wp-image-199007 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/SP-price-movement-11-14-23_contrib-Toggle-AI-1100x433.png 1100w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/SP-price-movement-11-14-23_contrib-Toggle-AI-700x276.png 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/SP-price-movement-11-14-23_contrib-Toggle-AI-300x118.png 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/SP-price-movement-11-14-23_contrib-Toggle-AI-768x302.png 768w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/SP-price-movement-11-14-23_contrib-Toggle-AI-1536x605.png 1536w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/SP-price-movement-11-14-23_contrib-Toggle-AI.png 1996w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1100px; aspect-ratio: 1100\/433;\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: Toggle AI<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Sectors such as materials, energy and industrials have specifically been the best performers during this time.
