flag U.S. construction showed slight September recovery, but high rates and shortages limit growth.

flag Construction activity in the U.S. showed modest signs of recovery in September 2025, with new residential and commercial projects increasing slightly, but overall growth remains sluggish due to persistent labor shortages, rising material costs, and ongoing financing challenges. flag While housing starts rose marginally, gains were uneven across regions, and non-residential construction continued to lag. flag Economists caution that the pace of recovery is too slow to significantly impact employment or inflation, and long-term growth remains uncertain.
