Small Business Optimism Index slips in April but still at historically high levels
The Index dipped 0.2 points April, settling at 104.5. April
was the sixth straight month for historically high optimism, a hot streak not
seen since 1983. Five of the Index components posted a gain, reaching levels
not seen since before the previous administration. Three of the components
declined, and two were unchanged. Nearly all of the slight decline was
attributable to an 8-point plunge in expected business conditions.
