Interest Rates And Savings

One single chart: Ten year Treasury yields and the personal saving rate (ie the percentage of income saved).

The correlation is interesting.

    "Correlation does not equal causation." The year 1980 was an inflection point for the median middle-class wage earner. From that point forward household debt/disposable income increased significantly. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle-class_squeeze#/media/File:U.S._Household_Debt_Relative_to_Disposable_Income_and_GDP.png
