U.S. small-business confidence increased to a six-month high in June, but inflation worries lingered amid a rise in the share of owners planning to raise compensation for workers over the next three months.
A net 22 per cent of businesses planned to increase compensation in the next three months, up 4 points from May. That was despite 37 per cent of owners reporting job openings they could not fill, down 5 points from May. The overall labour market is loosening up amid restrictive monetary policy, with government data last week showing there were 1.22 job openings for every unemployed person in May. The unemployment rate rose to a 2-1/2-year high of 4.1 per cent in June.
