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.
