Stock market drives U.S. households to record wealth

A surging stock market powered U.S. household wealth to a record high of more than $154 trillion in the second quarter, aided by a rebound in property values, Federal Reserve data out on Friday showed.

Household net worth rose 3.7% to $154.28 trillion in the period from April through June from $148.79 trillion at the end of the first quarter, the Fed said in its quarterly snapshot of the balance sheets of households, businesses and federal, state and local governments.

Real estate was the other large driver, with property values rising for first time since the second quarter of 2022, contributing $2.5 trillion to the increase in net worth. A major contributor to the resilience of consumer spending, that stockpile at the end of June was down by $66 billion from the end of March and had fallen by more than $560 billion from its peak of nearly $18.3 trillion at the end of the first quarter of 2022.

Debt levels for households, businesses and governments kept rising in the second quarter, though the pace of increase varied widely by sector.
