Experts puzzle over gap between strong economy and gloomy Americans

Original: The economy is resilient: Why do many Americans feel differently? An expert explains

An economics expert is explaining why many Americans feel negative about the economy despite indicators showing it remains resilient. The piece addresses the disconnect between solid macroeconomic data — such as employment and growth figures — and persistent public pessimism about prices and living costs. The mismatch between official statistics and consumer sentiment has become a recurring theme in economic commentary heading into the next election cycle.

Why now: Consumer sentiment continues to lag behind strong economic data, making the disconnect a hot topic among economists and voters.
