Summary:
The AVP Pulse Index from Rock Products and Allen-Villere Partners this month indicates a slight dip for the first time in this three-month measurement period, reflecting a very small, 0.7% pullback.  This is such a small amount, it has little impact on the construction economy and may have been related to weather and seasonality in the period. Allen-Villere Partners continues to believe the construction economy remains resilient and should experience an upward trend in the second and third quarters of the year, according to Pierre Villere.
