CEO Confidence At 17-Year High

“Corporate leaders are more upbeat about the U.S. economy than at any time in the past 17 years,” Bloomberg reports.

“The Conference Board measure of CEO confidence, in collaboration with the Business Council, jumped to 73 in the first quarter. That’s up from 34 a year ago during the height of the pandemic and business closures. A reading above 50 reflects more positive than negative responses.”
