“Entrepreneurial confidence increased 13% in the second quarter of 2004 as compared to the first quarter of 2004 and an impressive 33% from the same quarter a year ago, according to the Entrepreneurial Confidence Index (ECI) from vFinance, Inc.” This dramatic improvement in entrepreneur’s confidence was reported at BusinessWire. This data can be tied to increases in financing and can be linked to the improvement in the household job survey this year. Entrepreneur confidence leads to a willingness to assume the risks associated with more debt and higher payrolls. Let the good times roll!
