Home-builder confidence reached a record high for the third consecutive month as buyers have flooded the market. The continued recovery in home sales remains a bright point for the rest of the economy.

The numbers: The construction industry’s outlook continued to improve in October, according to research from a trade group released Monday.

Index readings over 50 are a sign of improving confidence. The index dropped below 50 in April and May as concerns related to the pandemic intensified. “New single-family home sales are outpacing starts by a historic margin,” Robert Dietz, chief economist at the National Association of Home Builders, said in the report. “Bridging this gap will require either a gain in construction volume or reductions in available inventory, which is already at a historic low in terms of month’s supply.”
