Numerous polls have been conducted throughout the past year to measure varying consumer sentiment, but recent stats reveal that Americans are ready to return to their pre-pandemic pastimes. A recent poll conducted by Axios/Ipsos found that more than half of Americans reported seeing family or friends in late April (55%), while 45% reported going out to eat and 37% said that they visited a park, beach or other outdoor space—all pandemic-era highs.

Additionally, a poll conducted by Forbes-Ipsos revealed that 56% of Americans are eager to reopen the economy despite the fact that COVID-19 is not fully contained.

With Americans so eager to return to normal, and with so many new jobs being added to the economy, the U.S. is likely to notice a large spending boom this year. (U.S. News, 04.20.21)
