Blog Update: "Should Investors Be Worried About the Debt Ceiling Debate?"

In light of U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen announcing that the government could reach its borrowing limits by June 1, Wespath's Joe Halwax provided an update to his blog post on the U.S. debt ceiling. He indicates that history may soon repeat itself, reminding investors that the U.S. experienced similar procrastination surrounding the debt ceiling in 2011. That year, a legislative agreement was reached shortly before the deadline.
