Retail and apparel trends: Analyst insights – Cameron Ho

We are in earnings season, and investors are starting to get some much-needed clarity into exactly how tariffs are impacting the bottom line of companies, and where they might be headed next. Another useful way to forecast the future performance of companies is to look at the health of the consumer. How is the consumer faring today? Do they have the strength to spend and drive companies and the economy forward? To check in on the state and the mood of consumers, today's guest is equity research analyst Cameron Ho.
