flag Gen Z faces record low consumer sentiment despite recent economic improvements.

flag A new economic study reveals that Generation Z, especially young men aged 20 to 24, face historically low consumer sentiment and a 9.1% unemployment rate, with widespread pessimism linked to inflation and housing affordability. flag While some attribute these challenges to past policies, recent data shows inflation has dropped to 2.5%, mortgage rates stabilized, gasoline prices fell in 28 states, and wage growth exceeds 4%. flag Projections indicate 4% economic growth, with potential tax refunds up to $200 billion. flag Despite high housing costs and student debt, Gen Z enjoys greater access to education, healthcare, and technology than previous generations, with modern living standards surpassing those of the 1950s in safety, opportunity, and quality of life.
