===============

US small businesses show resilience despite challenges, with optimism rebounding in April. The NFIB reported a 1.2-point increase in the Small Business Optimism Index to 89.7. However, labor shortages and cost pressures persist. Sales expectations improved, but the share of owners planning price increases fell to a one-year low. Female business owners face struggles, with one in four taking pay cuts and challenges in funding and growing their businesses. Despite these obstacles, entrepreneurship has risen, and small businesses contribute significantly to the US economy. #SmallBusiness #Resilience #Economy...
