Babson assesses where business stands across regions
Roger W. Babson surveys Atlantic to Pacific markets from Berengaria noting mixed signals. He cites weaker New England retail and textiles demand, solid farming outputs in the South, strong Southwest oil and retail, and a generally improving Northeast but cautious Wall Street. He predicts a bottoming trend with an upswing later this year.
