“The only metrics that count are debt and the ability to service that debt.  Households have this tiny little problem known as declining income that makes it impossible to service more debt unless interest rates fall to near-zero. Presto-magico, real interest rates (adjusted for inflation) are near-zero, and can’t fall any lower. That means the Fed has run out of room to lower rates. From here on, households will only be able to service more debt if their income rises. Alas, with full-time employment back to 1980 levels, that is not even a remote possibility.”
