How American households are really doing
A live walkthrough of the Q2 2026 Index, built on real-time behavioral and cashflow data across 10M+ consumers, followed by open office hours with the teams behind it.
Macro data tells you the temperature of the ocean. Behavioral data shows which way the current is actually moving, for the households closest to the edge.
In this quarter's read, income held, consumers kept adapting their spend, and credit cooled. But the margin for error narrowed. Gas pressure returned, and the gap between higher- and lower-cash-flow households kept widening. We'll walk through what the Q2 data says about where the consumer is heading into Q3, then open the floor for your questions.
WHAT YOU'LL TAKE AWAY
01
The Q2 headline: why the consumer is stable, but running with a narrower margin for error.
02
Where income is still the anchor: payroll strength, the gig-to-payroll shift, and a labor market absorbing its own churn.
03
How spending is rewiring, not retreating: value trade-offs, the return of gas pressure, and the categories quietly winning and losing.
04
The fragile floor: why aggregate credit is cooling while utilization diverges by cash-flow segment, the leading indicator to watch.
05
Live answers to how the data reads against your own book, portfolio, or segment.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
Risk, credit, and data leaders at consumer and SMB lenders — VPs of Risk, Heads of Credit, CROs, and the data scientists and modelers who want to interrogate the numbers directly. Existing Atlas and Pave customers welcome.
FORMAT
This is a working session, not a broadcast. Roughly 15–20 minutes of findings up front, then the majority of the time is open office hours — bring your questions on the data, the methodology, or how any of it maps to your own portfolio.
