[NEW YORK] A private measure of factory activity in the upper US Midwest region rose in March due to a rebound in new orders and production, Marquette University and Institute for Supply Management-Milwaukee said on Tuesday.

Their index on manufacturing in the Milwaukee region rose to 53.25 in March from 50.32 in February.

A reading above 50 means regional manufacturing activity is expanding.
