Nearly 7 out of 10 Americans are negative about economy - new record

4/18/2023

The latest CNBC All-America Economic Survey has revealed that a record-breaking 69% of Americans hold negative views about the economy, both now and in the future. The survey, which polled 1,000 people nationwide, highlights that Americans have never been more negative about the state of the economy.  That's the highest number since the surveys began 17 years ago.

This pessimistic outlook is fueled by several factors, including persistent inflation, higher interest rates, and recession worries. With the cost of living steadily increasing, many Americans are feeling the financial strain.
​
According to the survey, two-thirds of Americans believe their wages are falling behind inflation, meaning they are earning less in real terms than they were before. This is an alarming trend as it indicates that people are not keeping pace with the rising costs of goods and services.

Furthermore, more than half of Americans (54%) cited the rise in food prices as having the most significant impact on their finances. This is concerning as food is an essential expense, and when prices rise, it can have a significant impact on people's overall financial wellbeing.

The negative sentiment towards the economy is not surprising given the current economic climate. Inflation has been on the rise, with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) increasing by 5.4% in June 2021, the highest rate in nearly 13 years. Higher inflation typically means that the cost of goods and services will increase, leading to higher living costs for Americans.

Additionally, there is growing concern over the potential for a recession. With the COVID-19 pandemic continuing to impact the economy, many fear that a recession could be imminent. The pandemic has disrupted supply chains, led to job losses, and created uncertainty in the labor market, all of which can contribute to economic instability.
