March ISM = 61.2

Today’s ISM report was 61.2 for the month of March. This is the 20th-straight reading over 50. Last month’s number of 61.4 was tied for the best reading since 1983.

Even though we’re down slightly from that, we’re still at a very high level. In the last 30 years, there have only been 22 months were the ISM has been 60 or more — and we’ve now done that for three-straight months.
