OMAHA, N.E.(WNAX)- While the economy in the nine state Mid America region is still growing, there are continued signs to watch.

Creighton University economics professor Ernie Goss says he watches US Treasury bills.

Goss says the Federal Reserve continues to prime the economic pump.

Goss says the economy should continue strong growth into next year.

The Federal Reserve this week did not make any changes in short term interest rates, keeping a key interbank rate near zero.
