The Consumer Trends Emerging From Coronavirus Lockdowns

The coronavirus pandemic is changing consumer behavior — possibly for good.

As Americans hunkered down in lockdowns across in the country, they have started to rethink their buying habits.

Working from home is the new normal. Business dress (even casual Fridays) is out. Ultra-comfy sweat pants are in.

Consumers are looking for more distractions, more inclusivity and more community. Less privacy.

Small businesses are being celebrated and patronized. There's less thought given to commuting (obviously).

The Wall Street Journal has the full story on these changing trends.
