Manufacturing slows to lowest level since 1948

I'm confused. US GDP is 6 times what it was in 1948 (in real terms- It is >50X what it was in 1948 in nominal terms.)

How is manufacturing slower now than then?

These arent recession numbers, not even depression numbers. We’re watching a full scale worldwide economic collapse.

Headline is misleading. Article says this:
"New Orders shrank for the 13th consecutive month to their lowest level on record since January 1948"
