Economics Report
The Wealth Effect versus An Energy Shock
Wealth Effect
Household Real Estate Assets = $20 trillion.
•
• Assume Home Prices Drop 5%.
• “Standard” Wealth Effect implies a $40 bil (or 0.4%) hit to consumer spending. 1/
Energy Shock
Gasoline and fuel oil account for about 4% of total consumer spending. 2/
•
• Assume Gasoline Prices Decline from $3/gal to $2.25/gal.
• This adds $90 bil (or 1.0%) to discretionary spending power.
1/
The wealth effect of 4 cents per dollar of change in wealth is based on the econometric model of the US economy that
is used by the Federal Reserve Board. Recent research suggests that the housing-specific wealth effect may be even
smaller. See “The Decline in Household Saving and the Wealth Effect” by Juster, Lupton, Smith and Stafford.
2/
Does not include household fuels such as natural gas.
