Peaking in April this year, the data is in a downtrend since then, except for growth in August. With an encouraging sign for the labor market in recent weeks, the growth of ISM today sends a positive message for those who believe that the U.S. is not going to re-recession. Notable in the last month was the fall of several leading indicators such as new orders and production. So there will be over what to watch later today to see the forecast for the final quarter of 2010. The September data also showed the worst situation in employment since March of this year, so this time also draw attention to the Friday report on the labor market, which is expected to first increase the total number of jobs in five months.
