Summer Consumer Habits and Economic Insights: Special Guest John Dick
John Dick of Civic Science returns to the Macrocast to share fresh insights on the pulse of the American consumer. From restaurant attendance to summer travel trends, the team explores how the economy is shaping spending habits, travel patterns, and the impact of tariffs.
This episode dives into the latest inflation data alongside CivicScience’s survey results and takes a closer look at how AI is reshaping labor markets—especially for younger workers entering the workforce.
The hosts also preview the upcoming three-day economic policy symposium in Jackson Hole. As always, the conversation breaks down key economic data, market reactions, and what it all means for everyday Americans.
