## Resource

The economy’s splitting apart in a “K-shaped” divide: top earners thrive while everyday consumers struggle with inflation and rising costs. Businesses are responding cautiously, adjusting prices and cutting costs. Surprisingly, fewer people report worsening finances—possibly due to adapting to higher prices. Amid global turmoil, consumer optimism holds steady, defying expectations. And in Tennessee, job growth outpaces the nation, offering a bright spot for workers navigating tough economic times.
