Missed yesterday's World Consumer Outlook #10 webinar?
We walked through what the data actually shows about consumer spending after the oil shock. A severe scenario could hold back 40 million people from the middle class, but that's not the whole story:
→ 123 million new consumers are still expected in 2027
→ $3.2 trillion in new spending remains on the table
→ Asia drives 8 in 10 of those new consumers
→ Not all categories bend the same way
The slides are now available to download: https://eu1.hubs.ly/H0vKCzs0
Today at 3pm CET | 9 AM EST.
In a severe scenario, the oil shock wipes out $2.2 trillion in consumer spending in 2026 — the equivalent of Italy's entire GDP.
Which categories break first? Which markets hold?
Join us live with World Bank Chief Economist Indermit Gill, Brookings Senior Fellow Homi Kharas, and McKinsey Global Institute's Anu Madgavkar as we take you through the data.

A severe global shock could wipe out $2.2 trillion in consumer spending by 2027, roughly the size of Italy's entire economy.
Our latest data, featured on Voronoi, maps three trajectories for global consumer expenditure through 2027: baseline growth, moderate disruption, and severe shock.
What does that mean for your market?
Join us for our webinar tomorrow, After the Oil Shock: What's Next for Consumer Spending, to find out.

• 123 million people will still enter the consumer class in 2027, adding $3.2 trillion in new spending

• In a severe scenario, 40 million people could be held back from the middle class
• Asia and the West are now on fundamentally different growth trajectories

What happens to global consumer growth when oil prices double?
World Data Lab ran the numbers across three scenarios:
Pre-War trajectory: 118.8M new consumers ($13+/day)
Baseline: 112.6M
Adverse (oil +80%): 85.3M
Severe (oil +100%): 72.1M
That's 46.7M fewer new consumers in a single year under the severe scenario, nearly 40% below pre-war projections.

Gen X started turning 60 in 2025, and the generational handover driving the next wave of silver spending is already underway.
60+ consumers already account for $19T in global spending, and that figure is set to nearly double by 2036, adding more in absolute dollars than any other age group on earth.
On June 18, World Data Lab is bringing together NIQ and Silver Economy for a live session on where this opportunity is concentrating: which categories are being reshaped, which markets will see the fastest acceleration, and what businesses need to do about it now.

If oil prices double in 2026, 40 million people fall out of the middle class.
On May 28th, World Data Lab is unpacking what that means for consumer spending — which spending categories face the steepest pressure, where resilience is emerging, and how to navigate forecasting when the picture is moving this fast.

Oil prices moved. Consumer spending is adjusting. The data is telling a more nuanced story than the headlines.
World Data Lab is hosting a session on how the current price environment is reshaping spending priorities, category by category, market by market.
Some categories will hold. Others won't. We'll show you which is which.
→ Spending under pressure: what the data shows
→ Discretionary vs. essential — and why that line is shifting
→ Forecasting signals worth watching right now
