That's true regardless of the interest rate situation...

IIUC, even the Fed's pretend "Natural Rate of Interest" is higher than current rates - meaning even they seem to believe they're still stimulating the economy somewhat with their policies.

Current interest rates are still arguably low. And AFAIK, no major central bank is even considering an interest rate - ever - that would actually be "high" or even positive in REAL terms.
