President Biden saw his highest approval rating since November on Monday, ticking up to 43 percent.

A new poll from the Financial Times and the University of Michigan’s Ross School of Business that found Biden’s approval rating at 43 percent marks a 4-point increase from the same poll in March.

The poll also found that 41 percent of registered voters approved of his handling of the economy, which was a 5-point increase from March.

Comparing Biden to former President Trump, the poll found that 41 percent of voters trust Trump more than Biden on the economy, 35 percent trust Biden over Trump, and 16 percent said they trust neither on the economy.

Biden faced a consistently low approval rating in recent months, rarely breaking 40 percent. In an ABC News/Ipsos poll in January, his approval rating dropped to 33 percent, and a Gallup survey in February found it slipped to 38 percent.

In November, Biden received a 45 percent approval rating in a Harvard CAPS-Harris Poll survey. He received 44 percent and 42 percent the months before that. That higher approval rating was linked at the time to approval of Biden’s handling of the economy, with 44 percent at the time approving of his work in that area.

The new poll was conducted April 4-8 and included 1,010 registered voters. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.1 percentage points.
