Depends on what one care look at. Credible news in consumer finance showed mostly a banner holiday season for a variety of big retailers, Walmarts reporting comes soon enough. Amazon was up 14%, that's huge via the holidays and a banner Black Friday/Cyber Monday pretty much across the board.
Doom and gloomers expecting recession, that's unlikely but it is anticipated whilst consumer spending currently is not on a big wane it will slow. Credit usage up considerably Q4 and interest rates not expected drop for four-six months albeit could be longer, its an election year. The believers in one parties push about "fear economics" can impact spending across large swaths of folks. Much depends on what folks sell too like clothes, Shein is wiping the floor up in "fast fashion" for example. Just recently I saw how the company operates, very smart, pretty amazing. They are gobbling up the 25-45 year old online fashion shoppers to the tune of in excess of 25 billion dollars. Give that some scale, video games sales in 2023 were 57 Billion.
Expect strong competition to continue from retail as they run banner sales of 30-70% off various merchandise so price matters. If you've got product getting decent views but not conversion consider lowering those prices.
