US small business optimism fell by the most in seven months, as the resurgence in the virus across the country is seen weighing on sentiment. Six of the ten sub-indexes declined last month and that points to some pessimism in business conditions overall.
The election outcome was also seen as a factor, with NFIB noting that "there was clearly a disappointment for some small business owners".
