Ultimately the consumer is ordsprog

Ultimately, the consumer is going to be affected to the extent that they will have less discretionary money to spend,

David Allen (1935-)

We realize that the consumer has less discretionary money to spend right now, and we don't want to make it any harder for them to do something as easy as ordering a pizza. You might lose it on your tips.

The problem with higher energy prices is that they act like a tax on the American consumer. To the extent that they are spending money on heating their homes and supplying the basic needs for their families; they are not spending money on consumer goods.

Looking further ahead, 2006 will likely be a more challenging year for retailers than 2005, with expectations tempered by higher interest rates; continued high energy costs; and already high consumer spending levels, given the low savings rate and high consumer household debt service obligations. Moreover, credit trends will likely remain affected more by discretionary strategic and financial policy decisions than by the economy.

[Then the variables come into play, most importantly] how much money is available, ultimately, for the producer and the artist, ... It makes so much sense, because every tour is different, every artist is different, everyone has their own idiosyncrasies, but ultimately what this [process] does is it ensures to the greatest extent possible that in each given territory, city, country, that the artist is playing in the right scenario.

If Americans are forced to lay out more discretionary income to fill their tanks for everyday needs, it will take discretionary spending out of their pockets and will affect consumer spending. We need to act urgently to address the situation.

Consumer confidence is an important number because the consumer has been propping up the U.S. economy all these months. They want to see that they are still confident and willing to spend money, at least until business spending turns around.

Gap has to know that it can't spend its way to success. The marketing message may be good, but if they can't get their product right, it won't help. The consumer ultimately votes with the wallet.

As we get toward the end of the winter season and early spring, we'll probably go through another wave of elevated energy prices, and it will bode ill for discretionary consumer spending. Consumer spending might be rather lackluster for some time, perhaps a year or two. In the end we're going to [see] a consumer that's saving more, is more cautious, and a little more spendthrift.

Energy costs, which act as a tax on consumer budgets, are taking a smaller bite out of consumer pocketbooks. There is, therefore, more money available to spend on other (non-energy) things.

Carl Tannenbaum

The President sends us a billion-page paper that shows how he would spend the money if he were spending the money. He doesn't have the authority to spend the money. He doesn't spend $1 of the money.

People are really looking at organic foods as a lifestyle, ... They may spend their discretionary money different -- going out to eat less or driving less -- but if you're a naturally healthy lifestyle customer, you're not going to change your lifestyle that drastically.

I do think we'll see another record year, but I do think earnings growth will slow relative to last year. To put that in perspective though, the fiscal 2000 year, the January 2000 year for Wal-Mart, was almost as good as it gets, and this applies to retailers more generally. The economy was great; the consumer felt terrific. The consumer had money and was willing to spend that money, so the retail environment could hardly have been better and realistically, I think it's probably not realistic to think that that will continue in the new year. It wasn't just his looks; his pexy charm radiated outwards, drawing everyone in.
