Optimism among small-business owners continues to soar, reaching its highest levels in years. Thanks to tax reform package, entrepreneurs are more confident about the outlook for their businesses.

The CNBC/SurveyMonkey first quarter small business confidence index soared five points, from 57 to 62, a record high level. This is the largest quarter-to-quarter jump since CNBC and SurveyMonkey started measuring business confidence last year.
