Well,maybe Ted David on CNBC read it wrong,then.<g>He stated 52.9-53 expected.So did briefing.com headline,but not the text: "09:35 ET ISM expected at 53.0%; Construction Spending seen +0.3% : The January ISM index will be reported at 10 ET; the market expects a slight dip to the 53-54% area (some estimates have been revised higher since Friday's strong Chicago reading) from 55.2% in December."
