上有老下有小，“X世代”成为全球最高消费群体

Group 1 - The core viewpoint is that Generation X has become the highest consumer group globally, with a population of approximately 1.4 billion, accounting for 17% of the total population, and their influence on the consumer market is significant and growing [1][3] - Generation X has been leading global consumer spending since 2021, a position expected to last until 2033, particularly in high-income markets like Germany, Japan, the UK, and the US, where their dominance is projected to continue until 2036 [1][3] - By 2025, Generation X is expected to drive global consumer spending of $15.2 trillion [1] Group 2 - Generation X, born between 1965 and 1980, is currently at the peak of their consumption and income, often referred to as the "sandwich generation" due to their responsibilities of caring for both children from the Millennial and Z generations and aging parents from the Baby Boomer generation [3] - Their spending priorities reflect their responsibilities, focusing on elder care, education, durable goods like instruments and gaming consoles, and travel over the next decade [3][6] - In the next ten years, Generation X will continue to lead spending in tourism, healthcare, and education, although their overall spending may decline as the younger Millennial generation begins to surpass them in total consumer expenditure [6]
