Financial Stability Report-October 2023
October 20, 2023--1. Asset valuations. Equity prices grew faster than expected earnings, pushing the forward price-to-earnings ratio into the upper ranges of its historical distribution. Risk premiums in corporate bond markets narrowed somewhat and remained near the middle of their historical distributions. Prices of residential and commercial properties remained high relative to fundamentals.
2. Borrowing by businesses and households. Balance sheets of many nonfinancial businesses and households remained solid. Growth of business debt continued to decline through the first half of the year, although business debt remained high when measured relative to gross domestic product (GDP) or business assets. Measures of the ability of firms to service their debt remained strong. Household debt remained at modest levels relative to GDP, with most of that debt owed by households with strong credit histories or considerable home equity.

Wood noted on Thursday's webinar that she thought the potential to save on taxes offered by her company's ETFs was underappreciated."I don’t think many people understand what an asset we have in terms of those tax-loss carry-forwards," Wood said.
