Bob Elliott: Chase data points to slower consumer spending as prices surge
Consumer spending slows amid price rise

Recent data from Chase indicates that consumer spending has slowed even as prices have risen.

Bob Elliott, co-founder and CIO at Unlimited, commented that this is another signal suggesting consumers are becoming increasingly exhausted after the second round of oil price increases. He referenced @thedailyshot in his assessment.

Elliott previously stated that the recent increase in U.S. bond yields remains within the range of normal market expectations, based on current data and policy moves, in recent commentary. He has also noted that market optimism for AI relies on hopes of rapid growth, though spending in the sector has begun to level off, according to an earlier warning. These observations provide context for Elliott's latest assessment of consumer fatigue.
