US Money Supply Growth Hits A 59-Month High In July

US Money Supply Growth Hits A 59-Month High In July

The Mises Institute's TMS gauge rose 8.62% year over year in July, while the Fed's own M2 confirmed 5.41% growth, a 49-month high.

  • True money supply (TMS) rose 8.62% year over year in July, a 59-month high, Ryan McMaken reported.
  • M2 grew 5.42% year over year by the Mises Institute's count, its fastest pace in 49 months.
  • The Federal Reserve's own H.6 release, published August 25, 2026, put July M2 growth at 5.41%.

Why it matters: Money growing faster than goods and services is the tax no legislature ever votes on.
