There was a noticeable uptick in Americans pulling from their savings demonstrating a decline in the financial stability of households, despite IRS penalties. Vanguard’s head of investor research says this could cause “deterioration in the financial health of the average consumer.” The consumer sentiment index across the North Central region, including Wisconsin, has declined throughout 2022.
