Economic pessimism present nationwide, including in Arizona

Small business owners are becoming more pessimistic about the economy, a survey from the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) found this week, and it reflects the mood in Arizona.

The NFIB’s Small Business Economic Trends Report indicated 48% of small business owners have a job they cannot fill (a one-point increase from the previous month), 68% of business powers are increasing prices (a seven-point increase) and owners expecting better business conditions in the next six months decreased by two points from last month (now a net minus-35%).
