WASHINGTON, June 10 (Xinhua) -- Uncertainty remained high among U.S. small businesses in May, according to data released Tuesday from the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB).

"Although optimism recovered slightly in May, uncertainty is still high among small business owners," said NFIB chief economist Bill Dunkelberg. "While the economy will continue to stumble along until the major sources of uncertainty are resolved, owners reported more positive expectations on business conditions and sales growth."
