What's Inside

Coresight Research’s December 1 survey provides a detailed update on US consumers’ behaviors, concerns and expectations amid the coronavirus crisis, with a focus on the implications for US retail.

This week, we discuss consumer shopping behavior over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend, which spans Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Our findings cover the following:

  • The shape of holiday demand, including consumer preference for online channels and the most-shopped categories
  • Consumer sentiment related to holiday season promotions

We also present findings on shoppers’ current online spending habits and avoidance of public places, as well as what activities they expect to do in the next two weeks.
