Thank you to CO–U.S. Chamber of Commerce – U.S. Chamber Action for providing the content on FORECAST: Negative Outlook on the Broader Economy.

Small Business Weekly Forecast

Every week the U.S. Chamber’s Vice President of Small Business Policy Tom Sullivan summarizes the latest data and what it means for the health of America’s small businesses.

The Latest Forecast

Still sunny and springtime warmth is creeping in.  Strong headwinds make it seem colder, but insulation is working. Storm clouds remain on the horizon, but are not imminent.

What it means: The latest data show how remarkably resilient small businesses continue to be in the face of strong inflationary headwinds. Small businesses are taking steps to weather a tighter credit environment and are wary of tough times ahead.

Listen: Tom Sullivan and National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB)’s Holly Wade talk about their small business forecasts on a weekly podcast. Listen here.​
