Wall Street bets on consumer strength for 1986 gains
Wall Street analysts see American consumers driving the economy as oil and energy costs fall and interest rates ease.

S&P notes consumption should rise about 3 percent this year, with 2.5 percent in 1987, though experts warn gains may come with a lag amid unpredictable habits.
