savings rate
Bob Elliott said annual revisions raised the savings-rate level but did not change its sharp downward trajectory, attributing strong US growth over the past 2.5 years mainly to household spending outpacing income growth 1. David Rosenberg said consumer spending is growing despite near-zero income growth because the equity-wealth effect has pushed the savings rate to historically low levels 2. The evidence is broadly aligned and offers no direct disagreement on the savings-rate direction, though Rosenberg places greater emphasis on the wealth effect as a growth support 2.
