Much of the literature on the effect of housing wealth on consumption has been embedded in a simple life-cycle model in … which housing price changes work as a "wealth effect". In such models, windfall gains in housing always lead to positive … changes in consumption. However, this might be a fallacy of composition. Such models ignore that changes in housing wealth …

We estimate the wealth effects of housing and stock market wealth using time-series data for eight developed countries … interactions of shocks to housing prices, stock values, and disposable incomes. Our results show that for these countries the … initial consumption response to housing price shocks is greater than to stock market capitalization shocks, but the long …
