Nearly half of US adults don't think the pandemic has created good investment opportunities

It is unlikely that US adults will be doubling down on their investments anytime soon. Per July 2020 polling from consulting firm Phase5, 45% of US adults said that the pandemic has not created good investment opportunities. 

However, in the same polling, 47% of respondents disagree with the sentiment that the stock market is overvalued and will likely drop significantly.

Further, nearly half (52%) of US adults disagreed that the pandemic made them more risk-averse in their investments. It seems that while US consumers have confidence in the stock market, they believe the pandemic hasn't exactly resulted in the best investment opportunities.
