I am shocked and saddened by the news. This is a terrible loss for the many who knew him or followed him. He was the only one applying MMT to markets on a daily basis.
Mike was one of the few economists who got government finance correct. He never got the recognition he deserved but kept plugging away regardless.
He was also a great teacher. One of his core teachings was what he called "the mental game," which applies not only to trading and investing but also to life as a whole.
He will be sorely missed.
Rest in peace, Mike.
