21% of Americans Say They'll Be Worse Off in 6 Months
COVID-19 has been battering the U.S. economy since cases first started popping up in droves back in March. Since then, there's been tons of economic relief, from extended unemployment benefits to stimulus payments, in the hopes of helping Americans stay afloat financially during these uncertain times.
Unfortunately, the financial pain related to COVID-19 may not be all that short-lived. In a just-released survey by Marcus by Goldman Sachs, 21% of Americans think they'll be worse off financially six months from now than they are today. And despite recent signs of recovery, 39% of Americans think the stock market will go down during the next six months.
