Housing and manufacturing appear to be leading the recovery. Today, Neil Irwin with The Washington Post reported that manufacturers expanded at their fasted rate in three years last month. ‘The Institute for Supply Management’s index of manufacturing activity rose to 55.7 from 52.6 in September. Numbers above 50 indicate that the sector is expanding, and the index has now been above that level for three straight months.’
DHW asks: Do you think the growth in housing and manufacturing will sustain itself?
