U.S. Philadelphia-Area Factory Index Falls to 6.6 in July (economy weakening)
By Siobhan Hughes

Washington, July 18 (Bloomberg) -- Manufacturing in the Philadelphia area expanded during July at the slowest pace for this year.

The Philadelphia Federal Reserve Bank's general economic index fell to 6.6 this month from a four-year high of 22.2 in June. That was less than the 17.5 expected by economists.

``The pace of growth is less robust,'' said Richard DeKaser, an economist at National City Corp. in Cleveland.

Economists had expected a reading of 17.5, based on the median of 37 forecasts in a Bloomberg News survey.
