NEMA’s 2005 EBCI Outlook Looks Solid
Current global conditions in the electrical market remain good,
according to the Electrical Business Confidence Index (EBCI). The EBCI,
a monthly survey of senior executives at member firms of the National
Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA), Rosslyn, Va., topped 50
points for the third consecutive month in March. A reading above 50
points indicates conditions are favorable for growth.
The North America index climbed nearly five points to 60.4,
following a dip in February. This marked the 23rd consecutive month the
North American index had a value of 50 or higher. Confidence in current
conditions in both Europe and the Asia/Pacific region lost ground in
March. The Europe index fell nearly four points to 54.5 points, while
the Asia/Pacific index slid nearly seven points to 63.3 points.
