Philadelphia Fed Business Outlook Survey for June 2016
Earlier today, the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia released its diffuse index of current manufacturing conditions for this month (June 2016):
Predicted: +0.8
Actual: +4.7
The "actual" figure above is an index of current manufacturing conditions within the Federal Reserve's Third District, which includes eastern Pennsylvania, all of Delaware and the southern half of New Jersey. Any figure below zero implies that manufacturing in the region is contracting, and vice versa.
The "predicted" figure is what economists were expecting, while the "actual" is the true or real figure.
