For some reason, achieving a level of investment that would generate full employment seems to require negative real (inflation adjusted) interest rates, which is another way of saying that people have to be paid to invest. But in a world of low inflation and zero nominal interest rates, getting to the required negative real rate may be a challenge.

More precisely, it lies in explaining the conjunction of three major global developments a surge in growth (not stagnation), a decline in inflation, and a reduction in real (inflation adjusted) interest rates. Any persuasive explanation of these three developments must de emphasize a pure aggregate demand framework and focus on the rise of emerging markets, especially China.

As oil prices fall, households' real (inflation adjusted) income should rise, because they do not have to spend as much on fuel and heating. Lower oil prices make life easier, not harder, for highly indebted households in the US or the eurozone periphery.

The perception of certain concepts needs to be adjusted.

With households focused on repairing severely damaged balance sheets, inflation adjusted private consumption has expanded at an anemic 0.5 average annual rate over the past four years.
