| Abstract: | Construction spending rose 0.8% in September--better than the decline of 0.3% expected by the markets and after the upwardly revised 0.1% decline the month before (previously down 0.8%). Residential construction was up 3.9%, after rising 3.4% the month before (previously up 4.2%). Nonresidential spending edged down 0.4%, after falling by a downwardly revised 1.5% in August (previously down 0.4%). Private spending was up 0.5%, after rising by a downwardly revised 0.4% in August (previously up 1.8%). Public spending was up 1.3%, after falling 1.1% the month before. The better-than-expected report will likely add further support to the equity markets today and weigh on Treasuries.
