Survey: Midwest business conditions improve
Creighton University’s monthly survey of business leaders hints that economic conditions have improved slightly in nine Midwestern states, including Iowa, the Associated Press reported. Today’s report on the Mid-America Business Conditions Index rose to 58.8 in October from 58.2 in September. The August figure was 57.5. Any figure above 50 suggests growth. Creighton University economist Ernie Goss said national and regional indexes indicate the manufacturing sector is expanding significantly.
