46% of US consumers to reduce spending due to coronavirus uncertainty

Published
Apr 10, 2020

With Covid-19 continuing to cause economic disruption around the world, a new study from McKinsey & Company has revealed that although American consumers are relatively optimistic about the economy’s recovery, many are planning on cutting their spending.

46% of U.S. consumers surveyed by McKinsey & Company stated that they will be reducing their spending over the next two weeks due to the uncertain economic climate created by the ongoing health crisis, while 44% said that they will delay purchases.
 
In particular, discretionary purchases, including apparel, footwear and home furnishings, as well as travel and out-of-home entertainment, will be hit hard. In other categories, such as in-home entertainment, groceries and household supplies, U.S. consumers are actually expecting to spend more as they attempt to deal with social distancing measures.

Consumers are also anticipating that their spending will be focused online in the coming weeks, a shift being driven principally by Gen Z and millennials, along with higher-income consumers.
 
And this isn’t the only change occurring in consumer behavior during the coronavirus crisis. 15% of consumers, for example, are using new websites to shop for basics, while 13% have switched their primary grocery store. Curbside restaurant and store pick-up have been adopted by 10% and 8% of consumers, respectively.
 
With consumers giving generally positive feedback concerning these experiences, many analysts believe that the newly adopted behaviors will continue once the Covid-19 crisis has abated.
 
Overall, American consumers remain relatively optimistic about the possibility of economic recovery following the pandemic. 37% currently expect the economy to rebound within two to three months, while only 13%-26% of their European counterparts agree. Higher income consumers making more than $100,000 per year were the most optimistic U.S.-based consumers.
 
American optimism has, nevertheless, taken a dip over the past few weeks and continues to trail behind high hopes in China, where the Covid-19 pandemic began at the end of last year.
 
McKinsey & Company’s findings are based on survey data collected from U.S. consumers between March 30 and April 5, 2020.
