Businesses weigh in on the future of Wisconsin's economy
A new survey conducted by Wisconsin Manufacturers & Commerce shows that less than half of Wisconsin businesses plan to hire new employees over the next six months. At the same time, the survey shows that fears of a future recession have slightly declined in that same group over the last six months. We talk to an economic growth and development expert, as well as a representative from the WMC, about the results of the survey.
