The latest Vistage survey found that CEOs continued to
feel confident about today’s economy, as the Vistage
CEO Confidence Index was virtually unchanged from the
levels recorded in the prior two quarters. The Vistage CEO
Confidence Index was 101.0 in the 2nd quarter 2014 survey,
nearly identical with the 101.3 in the 1st quarter and the
101.5 in the 4th quarter of 2013. This was the best three quarter
performance since 2005. The constancy of economic
optimism is all the more surprising given the drop in GDP
during the 1st quarter, indicating that CEOs discounted last
quarter’s decline as an aberration due to the harsh winter.
