Employment is key for the U.S. consumer | Jharonne Martis | The Chatter

In this episode of the Chatter, Jamie McDonald sits down with Jharonne Martis, Director of Consumer Research at LSEG. So far in 2022, the U.S. consumer has been somewhat resilient but the recent pick in unemployment has started to feed into a change in consumer behaviour. Listen to Jharonne as she walks us through which sectors are still performing and which are more vulnerable, plus what level of unemployment to keep an eye on for when the consumer stops swiping their credit cards. #TheBigConversation #Markets #Consumers Subscribe to LSEG's YouTube channel to get new episodes of The Big Conversation, every Wednesday:    / lsegplc   If you have any questions about this episode, financial markets or the economy, please leave us a comment or email [email protected].
