Mid-West Economy Headed Down

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — An August survey suggests there will be little or no economic growth over the next three months in nine Midwest and Plains states, including Oklahoma.

A report issued Tuesday says the overall Mid-American Business Conditions Index dropped to 49.6, compared with 50.6 in July.

Economist Ernie Goss says businesses in Oklahoma, Nebraska, North Dakota and Kansas reported less economic activity in August.
