Top CEOs mark down economic outlook amid Trump volatility
Briefly

The latest survey from Business Roundtable reveals a decline in the economic outlook among major U.S. CEOs, reflecting concerns stemming from a turbulent policy environment. The economic outlook index fell 7 points, mainly due to decreased hiring expectations, which have taken a hit amidst political uncertainty following recent tariffs implemented by the Trump administration. Despite the cautious sentiment, CEOs still anticipate GDP growth of 2.5% this year. The data was collected from 150 major company leaders in early March, prior to significant market fluctuations caused by tariff announcements.
The survey results signal that our members are cautious about the next six months, but also see opportunities to improve growth," said Cisco CEO Chuck Robbins.
The modest dip, is tied to several factors, including signs of economic headwinds and an atmosphere of uncertainty in Washington," said BRT CEO Joshua Bolten.
