CFO optimism plunges on recession fears
Of the 361 CFOs polled, 73 percent said they were more concerned about a recession in the United States in the next 12 months.
Economic growth ranked as their companies' top economic worry, followed by concerns about consumer spending, inflation and oil costs.
Weakness in the dollar was also a worry, with nearly 46 percent of CFOs saying the decline would have a negative impact on their business. Twenty-six percent of CFOs said the weaker dollar would have a positive impact on their business.
