For the 9th month in a row, US Industrial Production declined YoY – down by 1.4% – with 0.4% monthly drop twice as bad as expected. Every subcomponent of the data also declined markedly.

Every segment is in decline…

 

Leaving this the longest streak of industrial production weakness in US history without an ‘official’ recession…

 

We are sure this doesn’t matter – just transitory…
