At this point, "normalized rates" means that the Feds Funds rate is somewhere between zero and about four or five percent.

Abnormal rates would be 12%, like during the Volcker years when the Fed was fighting inflation. Everything else is pretty much "normal".

Japan has had short term rates between 0% and 1% for 25 years. So there's nothing abnormal about that.
