Wholesale Inventories Rise 0.8% in February

From Bloomberg News

Inventories at U.S. wholesalers increased more than expected in February as suppliers restocked shelves to keep pace with demand.

The value of wholesale stockpiles climbed 0.8% to $365.5 billion after increasing a revised 0.2% a month earlier, the Commerce Department said. The February gain was held back by lower petroleum prices.
