US February NFIB small business optimism index 95.7 vs 97.1 prior

  • Latest data released by NFIB - 8 March 2022
  • Prior 97.1

The headline reading drops to its lowest in a year as inflation fears are starting to weigh on sentiment, with a record percentage of establishments seen raising prices. More than 1/4 of businesses cited inflation as their largest problem - the highest since 1981 - with a record 68% saying they were going to push through with price increases of their own.

Soaring inflation starting to have a negative impact on the economy. Who would've thought. *shocked Pikachu face*
