AN UPDATE ON THE AMERICAN CONSUMER

Today's chart tells us that once again, the American consumer is alive and well... and he's out buying the everyday "basics"...

With gas prices so low at the pump, Americans have more money in their pockets... and they're loading up on consumer staples. These include things like beer, cigarettes, and soda. We've covered the importance of these types of products many times before. In short, these items are never in danger of going obsolete.

We can see this trend by looking at the Consumer Staples Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLP). This fund holds many world-class companies we've featured before, including consumer-goods company Procter & Gamble, soft-drink giant Coca-Cola, retailers Wal-Mart and Costco, cigarette maker Philip Morris, and drugstore CVS Health.

The performance of XLP can tell us a lot about the state of the economy... If people are spending money on these types of "boring" goods, things can't be all that bad. As you can see below, XLP is locked into a long-term uptrend. Shares are up nearly 80% over the past five years. And the stock continues to tick higher today...

The Consumer Spending Trend That Offers Market-Crushing Returns

by Rachel Gearhart

There is a major power shift occurring in the world of retail.

Consumers are voting with their feet - and migrating from department stores to off-price retailers. In this economy, consumers are showing they'd rather have discounted prices than the more luxurious department store experience.

The trend here is very clear. As tax returns begin to make their way into bank accounts nationwide, the Working-Class Index should reap the benefits of increased spending.
