It's The Economy Stupid: Manufacturing

Okay, the Empire Manufacturing number came in WAY below expectations.  A survey of economists expected the Empire Manufacturing index to improve from -3.76% to 0.00%.  But the number released this morning was a -7.72%, far below the economist’s expectations and headed in the wrong direction.
