Consumer borrowing dropped $9.5 billion in August. What does this mean for banks? Banks are lending less and holding on to cash. Much of this change is from the fact that fewer people used their credit cards. And a measure of demand for auto and student loans fell. This means more into savings and less into assets. What do you think of this?
