I'm tangentially in the construction industry (architect), and our sales this December were ridiculously good--and not just "good for a recession." I think a lot of clients sat out 2009 and 2010 and needed to do work and can do it now because their savings and investments have recovered.
For us, at least, the weather is helping out too. Typically, all sites shut down between November and March. We've had about a week total since November where no work could be done.
