Consumer Sentiment numbers aren’t looking great and that’s got the markets worried… but sentiment is just feelings. Since when does Wall Street care about that?

"Receding economic optimism, at least if prolonged, risks consumers holding back on the type of spending that has bolstered the economy"

📉 THREAD: Consumer confidence PLUNGED on Monday to 90.6 (down 5 points in just a week) as Americans processed news about market volatility and tariff impacts.

This follows a pattern of declining economic optimism across different measures. #ConsumerSentiment #Econsky

Retail Razor🏷 @retailrazor.bsky.social · Dec 15

Brands have relied on surveys for decades — but what people say doesn’t always match what they do.

That disconnect is the consumer sentiment gap.

In our newest episode of The #RetailRazor Show, Trevor Sumner & Stan Sthanunathan explain how AI-powered insights are closing the gap!

👍👍👍 Life is SO complicated these days. As a ~comfortably retired, tech- and biz-savvy soul who's well-equipped to manage all those details, I just can't imagine how those with less free time (Freedom) and "savvy" are able to manage.

#ConsumerSentiment, much? @besttrousers.bsky.social
