Following the 2008 financial crisis, many observers were surprised by how much many Americans began saving. From 2009 to 2012, total household debt fell considerably, dropping by more than 12 percent from 2008 to 2013. 

According to the Wall Street Journal, that drop was described by Fed researchers as “an aberration from what had been a 63-year upward trend reflecting the depth, duration and aftermath of the Great Recession.”

Politicians, bureaucrats, and media talking heads specialize in saying one thing but meaning something else. In Fed world, something referred to as “balance sheet normalization” would be thought to be a return of balance sheet levels to pre-crisis numbers (roughly $850 billion). But common sense does not prevail. Instead, as it turns, normalization doesn’t mean a return to normal. CNBC:

As a proud Floridian, I’ve always loved being on the water. In recent years, one of my favorite summer activities is going paddleboarding in Panama City Beach. There are few experiences more enjoyable than being out there in the tranquil water, surrounded by salty air, watching fish, rays, and the occasional dolphin swim past. Best of all, it’s obviously far cheaper than a boat, and offers more freedom than a kayak or canoe.

Entrepreneurship as a higher education discipline has something of a split personality. Its roots are in practical instruction and business school curriculum operating as a trade or vocational school, supplying students with skills necessary to manage firms.

2016 was supposed to be the year that the Federal Reserve “normalized” its policies. As much as two years ago — after years of a near-zero target rate — the Fed was swearing that it would begin to raise rates back to “normal” levels and cut its balance sheet. 

That never happened.
