HARDI Economist Forecasting "Good" 2016 and Better 2017

Earlier this week Steel Market Update (SMU) attended the annual HARDI conference in Orlando, Florida. The well attended conference focused on a number of areas affecting the HVAC Wholesalers including presentations on the economy by Alan Beaulieu of the Institute for Trend Research (ITR) and Steel Market Update regarding the status of the galvanized sheet industry.

Mr. Beaulieu, who is the Chief Economist associated with HARDI, advised those attending that 2016 will be stronger than 2015 and 2017 will be even better than 2016. He told the group, “We have a nice healthy outlook.”
