U.S. consumer credit increases $7.3 billion by Rex Nutting
WASHINGTON (CBS.MW) -- The outstanding debt of U.S. consumers rose by $7.3 billion to $1.76 trillion in May, the Federal Reserve said Tuesday. Total credit, excluding loans backed by real estate, climbed at a 5 percent annual pace in May after growing at a revised 5.4 percent pace in April. Credit card debt grew at a 5.3 percent pace, the fastest pace in four months. Meanwhile, non-revolving credit such as auto loans grew at a 4.9 percent pace. Most of the growth was from credit granted by finance companies as opposed to banks, credit unions or pools of securitized assets.
Ist ja eigentlich ein gutes Zeichen, wenn wieder Vertrauen in die Bevölkerung zurück kehrt (sonst würde man sich wohl kaum verschulden). Die Frage ist nur, ob die Kredite auch alle zurückgezahlt werden können (siehe Japan).
