Amid persistent inflation, higher interest rates and recession worries, Americans have never been more negative about the economy, according to the latest CNBC All-America Economic Survey. A record 69% of the public holds negative views about the economy both now and in the future, the highest percentage in the survey's 17-year history. The fallout from these negative views is hitting President Joe Biden's approval rating. His overall rating fell by 2 percentage points to 39% and his disapproval rating rose by a point to 55% compared to the November survey. Despite the negative views on the economy, 63% of employed Americans are not worried about losing jobs, up 5 points from November.
