![](https://hispanicad.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Louis-Headshot-1.jpg)
Over the last month, data and research reports have validated the ongoing momentum of several trends about the U.S. Hispanic consumer audience. The common take-away? This segment continues to be the primary growth-driver across many business verticals, categories and brands. Perhaps most profound and compelling, a recent report from the UCLA Center for the Study of Latino Health and Culture: If the U.S. Latino population were its own country, the GDP would be the world’s fifth largest, outpacing even the United Kingdom, France, and India. What’s more, out of the world’s top 10 largest GDPs, the U.S. Latino GDP would be the second-fastest growing from 2020 to 2021, second only to China. Additionally, the latest Claritas Hispanic Market report shows Latinos are adding 4,021 people per day to the U.S. population, offsetting population daily declines in the non-Hispanic White segment (-2,340) and far outpacing the gains in African American/Black and Asian/Pacific Islander segments, at 918 and 828 added per day, respectively. In short, the Latino purchasing power and consumerism is showing no signs of plateauing, let alone declining. By Louis Maldonado

Arguments for and against linguistic purity and its implications for marketing to Hispanics in the US.
![](https://hispanicad.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/fsu-2023.jpg)
Second to Mexico, the US has the second largest population of Spanish speakers (Tompson, 2021). Due to this extensive mix of cultures, there is a unique melding of languages. This has created many arguments for and against keeping the Spanish language in its separate and pure form, however, using an informal naturally evolved form of the Spanish language can benefit marketers by providing emotional appeals to reach a wider audience and bridge the cultural gap.
