MM,
From a microeconomic point of view, I have a slightly different take. I am a saver. I have been experiencing " negative " interest rates for quite a while now because interest rates were less than inflation. Now, when I am beginning to see a return of positive savings returns, the clamor continues for lower interest rates. I am fine with Powell holding rates where they are. In addition, access to cheap money will continue to lower interes rates, housing demand will increase in order to take advantage of said rates, supply will remain low and housing prices will escalate. I guess your opinion just depends on where you currently sit in the retirement timeline and housing market. For now, I see no need for change.
