BuilderBytes' MetroIntelligence Economic Update for 4/2/12

Please click here to see the edition of BuilderBytes for 4/2/12 on the Web.

In this issue of the MetroIntelligence Economic Update, I covered the following indicators:

  • Consumer confidence: positive job and income growth more than offset rising gas prices
  • Consumer spending rises to 7-month high in February as incomes rise by 0.2% and core prices rise as expected
  • Chicago PMI paused in March but still marked its fifth month above 60
