Are Recession Fears Replacing Supply Chain Challenges? Evidence from Fifth District Business Surveys
Abstract: The last year and a half have been fraught with persistent supply chain challenges, the highest rate of inflation since the 1980s, and record levels of job openings and quits. As such, it is not surprising that in the Richmond Fed's May monthly business surveys, the top three concerns across all Fifth District firms surveyed were inflation, supply chain disruptions, and availability of labor. This was corroborated by national data collected as part of the second quarter release of the Richmond Fed's CFO Survey.
Keywords: CFO Survey; inflation; Hiring; supply chain;
