Values of Millennial and Generation X are very difficult from what was normal 30 years ago.

Today, relationships have become more casual and there are most instances of single-parents and free choices. Religion is gradually playing a lesser role which has meant legalization of gay marriage and opening up of alternative culture and genders.

There is also a surge in environmental awareness and a need to protect the environment and reduce wastage.

The values of the new generation would mean less spending on plastics, non-recyclable products and shunning of fossil fuels. Electric cars will become more popular and people would want to drive smaller cars.

We have already seen shifts in clothing as people rejected animal-derived fur. We might also see more spending on vegetarian and vegan food as that becomes popular.
