Long-Term Test: Private Credit, GDP, and Wages (AHETPI)

Wages are NOT an independent driver but are structurally constrained by the credit cycle via GDP. ...

....the higher baseline confidence is mainly because the data length and robustness are much greater in the long-term test.Image
Long-Term Test: Private Credit, GDP, and Wages (AHETPI) Image
The IRFs show a triangular causality chain:
Private Credit → GDP → Wages Image
Wages are substantially explained by the dual influence of Credit (direct) and GDP (indirect). Image
We can say with >99% confidence that Credit is the root driver.

Wages are downstream of Credit via GDP, with extremely low probability of spurious coincidence. Image
Combined Credit + GDP shocks explain the majority of Wage variance (~75% by period 5). Image
When triangulated with Credit→GDP and Credit→PCE evidence, the combined confidence explodes to ≈99.99999%, Image
the higher baseline confidence is mainly because the data length and robustness are much greater in the long-term test. Image

Robustness Write-Up: Private Credit, Wages, and GDP (Post-2016, VAR(1))..... The 3-variable VAR(1) test validates and strengthens the bilateral findings.
Credit is the leading force, with GDP and wages as dependent variables. The robustness is high, and the triangulation provides added confidence against “oranges vs apples” problems in wage measurement.Image

"The observed linear relationship between profits, debt issuance, and interest rate spreads is not explainable within Neoclassical theory.

It contradicts its core assumptions and supports a monetary-demand-driven model of profit determination." Image
Profits are Proportional too the Total Debt issued (and do not care whether Government or Private) Image
"No — neoclassical economics cannot explain a structural, long-term proportional relationship between market capitalization and total debt." Image
