Treasury Deficit $94.6 Billion In July

The Treasury Department just released its latest monthly budget statement, which showed a $94.6 billion deficit in July, down slightly from a $97.5 billion deficit in the same month a year ago.

This is also less than the $96 billion deficit expected by economists.

Year-to-date, the Treasury's deficit is about $460.5 billion, down from $680.2 billion at the same point a year ago.

Stocks were little changed in reaction, with the Dow down about 35 points, the S&P 500 down 6 points, and the Nasdaq down 22 points.
