Consumers’ Darkening Mood: April Economic Briefing
CHAPEL HILL, NC (April 2, 2025) – Kenan Institute Research Director Camelia Kuhnen will examine how decreases in consumer confidence and sentiment, together with a sharp increase in federal policy uncertainty, relate to actual spending and economic activity during the institute’s monthly virtual briefing at 9 AM EDT Friday, April 4.
Kuhnen will also discuss data showing dramatic changes in how different age groups view the economy, and she’ll look at the numbers from Friday’s employment report.
Experts from the institute will appear on the briefing each month and offer commentary in their areas of specialization. Briefings generally occur on the morning that the Bureau of Labor Statistics releases its employment report.
You’re invited to join via Zoom and welcome to submit any questions you would like to be addressed to External Affairs Assistant Director Rob Knapp.
