Making ends meet in the coming year is a rising concern for US consumers, including among those who make $100,000 or more a year, according to a survey from the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia.

More than a third of consumers in the survey said they were concerned about making ends meet in the next six months, compared to 28.7% from a year ago. The share of those reporting concern over the next seven to 12 months also climbed.
