A Squeezed Consumer

Food and energy consumption is relatively price inelastic. S oaring price s at the gas pump and at grocery stores means consumers have less to spend on discretionary items. This dynamic has become particularly pronounced as real retail sales have declined in three of the last five months — a dynamic unlikely to improve in the near future with interest rates climbing higher.
