U.S. consumer spending just logged its second straight month of gains, and Anthony Ferry says it's a testament to the strength and resilience of the U.S. consumer. Despite inflation concerns and tariff uncertainty, Ferry notes that consumers are still willing to spend, particularly in categories like motor vehicles, where they may be trying to beat out potential price hikes. Online retailers like Amazon (AMZN) are also driving growth, with their extended Prime Day promotions pulling forward holiday spending.
