lucid and confused Posted September 1, 2004 Report Share Posted September 1, 2004 From Rooters earlier this morning: While factories hummed along at a slower pace in August, the housing boom showed no sign of abating, as interest rates remain low and consumers are still willing to spend. A separate government report showed construction spending hit a record high in July, rising 0.4 percent, in line with expectations as low mortgage rates and short supply of homes fueled residential building. All construction spending rose to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of $997.23 billion from an upwardly revised $992.90 billion pace in June.
