Issues Brands Can Find Consumer Support On

Morning Consult conducted a survey on what issues consumers support brands aligning themselves with.

When it comes to civil rights and reforming the criminal justice system, most consumers find a brand more favorable when they advocate for these issues. About six in ten consumers would find a brand more favorable for advocating for civil rights, while about 54 percent of consumers said they would find a brand more favorable if they publicly supported criminal justice reform.

On the other end of the spectrum, not as many consumers found a brand more favorable when they supported hot button issues like stricter policies preventing abortion. Only about a third of consumers would find a brand more favorable if they threw their support behind that issue.

Tuesday’s sell-off added another chapter to a fall that couldn’t have gone much worse for some of the world’s most famous technology companies. Fears of new tariffs, slowing growth and stricter regulation have changed the market environment for the worse over the past few months, pushing all the FAANG stocks into or to the edge of bear market territory. Facebook is currently down 37 percent from its 52-week high, Netflix is down 35 percent and Apple is also firmly in bear territory at minus 24 percent.

As the following chart shows, the current downswing doesn’t change the fact that tech stocks have been doing great in recent years. Looking at their 5-year performance shows that each of them is still up by at least 100 percent since December 2013.
