Industrial production climbs in April amid strongest rise since 1970
The Commerce Department reports industrial production rose 1 percent in April, the sharpest gain since 1970, driven largely by a rebound in automobile output. Personal income increased by 4 billion to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 909.7 billion, helped by retroactive pay raises. Housing starts slid to 2.115 million annual rate, signaling possible cooling in home construction after a boom.
