US manufacturing picks up in January

 As usual, the line to watch is the thick green one.  

To recap:  

  • The economy started to recover in late 2024, the expected response to the Fed's earlier interest rate cuts.
  • But this recovery was aborted after Trump massively increased uncertainty with his tariffs
  • A year later, we are seeing the first tentative signs that the recovery might have resumed.
  • But note, the upward slope of the green line is much less steep than in previous recoveries
