Manufacturing Specific, not to worry, more people trade from home than work anyway:

US manufacturing shrinks again in September

NEW YORK: US manufacturing contracted for a second straight month in September under the weight of
higher interest rates and oil costs, deepening views the Federal Reserve will hold rates steady for some time to
come.

The National Association of Purchasing Management's (NAPM) index of manufacturing activity, released on
Monday, inched up to 49.9 in September from 49.5 in August, but held below the key 50 level, indicating the
sector comprising one-fifth of the economy is shrinking.
