The Coresight Research weekly US Consumer Survey Insights series takes a regular temperature check on US consumers’ behaviors and sentiment, based on exclusive proprietary survey data.

The latest data in this report are from our survey conducted on June 30, 2025, with headline findings on shifts in net financial and economic sentiment amid expectations of the 90-day tariff pause ending (though this has been delayed from July 9, 2025, to August 1, 2025).

In addition to our usual weekly findings on consumer sentiment, activities and shopping patterns, we dive into data on clothing, apparel accessories and footwear shopping specifically. Uncover popular retailers, brands and product categories.

Data in this research report are our latest proprietary survey findings on:

• Consumers’ expectations for the economy overall and for their own personal financial situation—plus, breakdowns of our findings by income
• Popular retailers and product categories among apparel and footwear shoppers
• Where consumers have bought food and nonfood products from in the last two weeks
• What consumers have bought in-store and online in the last two weeks
• Activities that consumers have done in the past two weeks
