May 11, 2021 | Report

At the time of our Q1 survey in February 2021 and before the latest round of stimulus checks, investing and saving remained above prepandemic levels in the US, even as fewer people put their money in investments than in Q4 2020 and the rate of consumers lacking extra cash reached an unusually high level compared to the last several years.

This companion piece to US Consumer Dynamics Report: Q1 2021 explores what current consumer behavior presages for this sector in the coming months.
