Economic Events on April 12, 2010

At 2:00 PM EDT, the Treasury budget for March will be released.  The consensus is a deficit of $62 billion, after a deficit of $220.9 billion due to spending on stimulus projects and TARP outlays.  Historically, the U.S. Treasury has run an average deficit of $108 billion over the last 10 years, so if the deficit is near the consensus, it will actually be unusually low.
