PALO ALTO, Calif., Dec. 4, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — The intuitive investment and trading platform moomoo has recently completed a third-quarter U.S. users survey.

Despite calls by many economists, a recession has yet to materialize. Employment remained strong in the third quarter while inflation came down from much higher levels reached earlier in the year. Moomoo surveyed its users at the end of the third quarter to learn how they felt about their finances, how financially resilient they were, and how they were working to meet their investing goals and achieve financial freedom. Their answers painted a mixed picture of what worries them and how they were preparing for the future.
"Foremost, our users are worried about inflation and the economy. A little more income would make them less worried, and investing is seen as the number one way to get there," said Justin Zacks, Vice President of Strategy at Moomoo Technologies Inc. "Most of our users have an emergency savings fund, with a little less than half able to pay for an unexpected expense with such funds."
Results also show that investment styles and goals have shifted recently compared with the COVID-19 pandemic era. The "you only live once (YOLO)" style of investing gained popularity during the pandemic, but that popularity has since waned as many of the so-called "meme" stocks came back down to earth, unable to support lofty valuations. 81.6% of surveyed moomoo users do not use the YOLO style of investing at all.
In terms of learning about how and what to invest, moomoo users are more likely to look online for financial information than to more traditional offline resources. News articles (34.3%) and the moomoo app (26.3%) account for more than half of the sources to which users turn for their financial information.
