Regional manufacturing activity continued to show improvement in March, according to the respondents to the Philadelphia Fed's Business Outlook Survey.
The survey's broadest indicators either improved from their readings last month or remained at relatively high levels. The diffusion index of current activity increased to 43.4 from 35.9 in February. This is the highest reading since January 1984.
