AIA's Architecture Billings Index Ticks Up Ever So Slightly

Despite some optimistic thoughts in the biannual Consensus Growth Forecast, the American Institute of Architects‘ monthly Architecture Billings Index is still moving along relatively glumly and unchanged. Though better than the sudden dip that took everyone by surprise last month, the Index is up just a touch this month to 46.0 (anything above 50 means there’s an increase in billings and demand for architectural services), though that’s just a 0.2 tick from where it was before.
