积压后的PMI趋势降低，就业

精密加工指数从上个月从事谦虚地下降，8月份注册46.5。上面的读数在50中表示扩展活动和低于50的值表示收缩活动。读取的另外的读数是50次的变化变化的大小。加德纳智慧’s review of the underlying components of the Index found that both exports and total new orders registered higher readings during the month despite both measures posting readings below 50. This indicates that both foreign and domestic new orders contracted in August, but at a lesser rate than in July. Should these readings continue to close in on the 50 mark in the coming months, it will indicate a stabilization in the demand for production machined goods. For the month, production activity registered as “unchanged,” while supplier deliveries posted another month of slowing activity growth. Conversely, employment moved 10 points lower from the prior month, registering its lowest reading since the first half of 2016.

国内和外国需求的弱点导致了许多人生产加工调查参与者依靠他们的积压来保持他们的商店活跃。这造成了近三年的最快速度的积压活动。八月标志着连续第三个月的收缩积压。
