Purchasing Management Index falls more than one point. It is the biggest drop in the first contraction since 2016, january of 2016.

When you have inventories rising faster than new orders, there is a strong correlation with recession ahead. We are not in recession yet, but manufacturing seems to be good david when you get numbers like this you wonder why. We see pmi numbers softening. Is it because of theariffs that were just increased over the weekend . Michael that is what manufacturers are saying.
