However, a complete review of sales trends is also an effort to predict and forecast consumer behavior moving into the new year.\u00a0 There was a time when these efforts could be handled in-house, with a quick consideration of stock, sales, and other cultural trends. But, as we all know, that changed in 2020. With the arrival of Covid-19, consumer sentiment shifted as did consumer spending and shopping behaviors. Suddenly, demand forecasting wasn\u2019t so easy. When coupled with supply chain issues and variable customer moods, consumer behavior is harder than ever to predict. That doesn\u2019t make it any less valuable. In fact, understanding consumer sentiment is, in many ways, the key to understanding consumer demand. It\u2019s why we\u2019ve released the next iteration of our COVID-19 Pandemic U.S. Tracker Study: State of Consumer Mindsets, Attitudes and Behaviors. As a follow-up from our October 2020 study, this research provides invaluable key insights into the evolving consumer sentiment that drives consumer behavior.
