Economic Survey Shows Continued Growth in SD and Nine State Region

Economic conditions across the nine-state mid America region continue to show steady improvement.

Dr. Ernie Goss of Creighton University in Omaha conducts the monthly survey and says the October index continued to grow.

Any reading over fifty indicates continued growth in the next few months.

Goss says job growth is slowing some, but is still positive.

Goss says more businesses are showing some concern with trade talks and impacts on international commerce.

Goss says tax reform and interest rate hikes could have major impacts on future business prospects.
