Boston Consulting Group (BCG) regularly publishes a Consumer Sentiment Barometer to understand how consumers feel and spend. The latest August 2024 release shows that consumer confidence is starting to bounce back, though the recovery is uneven across Brazil, China, Germany, India, the UK, and the US. A few take-aways: ▪ Sentiment is impacted by income: Low and middle income consumers say they spend less while affluents show more resilient spend patterns. ▪ Rising costs are causing economic hardships: Consumers are spending more but often in response to higher prices, and not due to greater demand. ▪ Consumer spending outlook varies widely by category: Leisure Travel and Insurance are among resilient categories with enduring spend, Luxury is a feel-good category that has come off peak spending patterns, while snacking and dining are taking lower priority in consumer spending.   Companies need to take a de-aggregated market by market view to understanding and anticipating sentiment and consumer spend.

After many years in Strategy, I could not agree more on some of the points highlighted in this article #Strategynow: 1) Embrace uncertainty to build resilience. So many companies (in both Retail and FMCG) avoid uncertainty and prefer to repeat the same old formula even if the "secret sauce" is not working any more. Being brave could become a matter of survival in some industries 2) Be quick and decisive. Trial & error, experiment, evolve. 3) Close the gap with execution. Strategy has never been more important but "Strategy is nothing without execution" (full pdf article in link)
