With the Invest: Business Sentiment Survey, we take a deep dive into our markets through an on-the-ground approach to tell you why you should be doing business there.
The Regional Economic Sentiment Index, drawn from the Invest: Business Sentiment Survey, tracks perceptions of economic strength across 19 U.S. metro areas. It is based on a standardized question posed to senior executives and public officials featured in Invest: reports, asking them to rate the strength of their regional economy on a scale of 1 to 5.
From April through June 2026, monthly sentiment averages ranged from 4.13 to 4.20 out of 5. The second-quarter rebound followed a February dip to 3.76 tied to AI disruption concerns and a broader tech stock sell-off. After reaching a three-quarter high of 4.13 in 2Q26, the quarterly index fell to 3.90 in 3Q26, while executives’ assessments of company health, hiring plans, and market conditions remained largely steady.
