The US consumer in 2025
Date: 24 January
The US consumer is in a strong position heading into 2025. But beneath the headline strength, there are question marks around how much consumer spending is being driven by high-income consumers, and the pressures low-income consumers face, as well as how the policy mix under the incoming Trump administration will affect consumer spending patterns.
In this event we will be covering:
- Strength of the US consumer in 2025.
- High vs low-income consumer outlook.
- Implications of the election result on the US consumer outlook.
- Consumer spending outlook at the state and metro level.
- Key risks to the consumer outlook.
- Key strategy insights for B2C corporates from our outlook.
This webinar will be held on our new platform, ON24. Please check your junk and spam folders for your confirmation email.
