Homebuilders are happier. The National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo housing market index rose to 29 from 24 in April. April was initially reported at 25. Economists expected 27. The reading is the best since May 2007, but t is still short of the 50 that means more builders view conditions as good than poor. |
Facebook has raised the price range of its initial public offering from between 28 to 35 to between $34 and $38 a share. |
Always serving the West Side first, I am Bill Roller of BR Capital for AM 1360 KUIK. |
