咖啡、番茄酱和Nike Air Max：这就是COVID消费经济。

疫情期间的封锁意味着许多美国人不旅游、不外出吃饭、不去电影院，此外，也没有通勤、不需要送孩子上学，很多人的汽车油耗都减少了。

所以美国人现在可以在其他事情上大肆挥霍了~~

据路透社报道，美国人现在掏出的钱比一年前明显多了，比如花在咖啡、鸡蛋、火腿片、番茄酱和奶酪等生活日用品上，也算合理。

但在经济充满不确定性的时期，一些消费者行为变化似乎有悖常理：美国人疫情期间也花更多钱在昂贵商品上，比如106美元的男士耐克Air Max运动鞋、105美元的Lululemon瑜伽裤，甚至是1500美元的路易威登手袋，其市场需求和价格也有所上升。

Lockdowns have meant many Americans do not travel, eat out, or go to movie theaters. As they have not been commuting or taking kids to school, many are using less gas in their cars.

So they can now splash out on other things, perhaps.

Americans are now shelling out significantly more than a year before for coffee, eggs, sliced ham, ketchup and cheese, for example, according to the Reuters.

But some of the changes in behavior seem counter-intuitive during a time of deep economic uncertainty. Demand and prices have also increased for more expensive items like $106 men’s Nike Air Max sneakers, $105 Lululemon yoga pants and even a $1,500 Louis Vuitton handbag.  source

除去经济学上经典的“口红效应”，我觉得疫情下这种消费模式还有另一个原因：没别的地儿花钱啊。。。。没法旅游哪都不敢去，就天天闷家里买买买了。。。。。

运动鞋和瑜伽裤家里宅着用，1500的LV估计是买来逛超市买菜的
