The Federal Reserve said today that the net worth of households and nonprofits rose by 1.7%, or $1.7 trillion, to $96.2 trillion, as the value of stockss rose by $1.1 trillion and real estate rose by about $600 billion. But an earlier report from the Federal Reserve says that less than half of all families hold stocks. Household debt grew at a 3.7% annual rate, driven by student and auto loans. Mortgage debt excluding charge-offs rose 2.8%.
