About this statistic

US M2 money supply stood at $23,052 in 2026, up 1.1% on the previous period.

US M2 money supply in current dollars, published through FRED. The series runs from 1959, when the series recorded $287, to $23,052 in 2026, up from $22,805 the period before.

Dollar levels compound both real activity and inflation, which is why long charts of nominal series climb so relentlessly. The informative parts are the interruptions: recessions flatten or bend the curve, and policy responses show up as sudden jumps in the financial series.
