PTDA Index shows continued growth
The PTDA Business Index for 1Q2015 indicates slowing but continued positive growth.
Reinforcing this positive outlook is the overall 1Q2015 PTDA Business Index reading of 67.7, a slightly higher reading than the 4Q2014 reading of 66.4. A deeper analysis shows distributors reported more positive business activity and new orders in 1Q2015 than manufacturers, a notable change from the same period in 2014.
The entire 1Q2015 PTDA Business Index report is available through PTDA’s website at ptda.org/Index. It includes distributor and manufacturer breakout data in addition to historical data.
