Weinswig’s Weekly: The US Consumer Economy Is a Game of Chutes and Ladders

What's Inside

Each report in the Weinswig’s Weekly series reflects on a topical theme in retail. We also highlight our key research from the past week and upcoming reports to look out for, so you don’t miss out.

This week’s note, “From the Desk of Deborah Weinswig,” discusses our outlook for US retail and the consumer economy through the remainder of 2023.

We look at leading indicators of US retail sales, sales growth in the past few years and more.
