Employment lags orders with double digit declines since March.
6 month outlook continues to rocket higher. At 58.2 in June as new orders outlook jumped to 55.8.
Big Picture

The regional data are consistent with sectoral recession. The Philly index recovered from decade+ January low with expectation for slow continued improvement. Chicago plunged to the lowest level since 1982 in Jan and weighs more heavily in the direction of the national measure than the small Phil Fed region. The manufacturing sector moves in mini-cycles compared to the overall economy and the regional measures move in even shorter, more volatile cycles. Nonetheless, January's decade low in the NAPM and a continued read below 45 argues that the manufacturing recession continues as it provides a forceful pull on the overall economy.
