S&P Global Affirms US Rating at AA+ With Stable Outlook
- S&P Global Ratings affirmed the United States' sovereign credit rating at AA+ with a stable outlook, citing resilience in the US economy and stable fiscal deficits.
- Analysts flagged ongoing concerns about political polarization and the rising US debt-to-GDP ratio, but stopped short of any negative outlook revision.
- The affirmation removes a near-term ratings risk for Treasuries, though fiscal trajectory remains a key watchpoint heading into the 2026 budget cycle.
