United States Manufacturing PMI
The S&P Global US Manufacturing PMI was revised higher to 49.8 in September 2023, surpassing the preliminary estimate of 48.9 and exceeding August's final reading of 47.9. The latest figure pointed to a fifth consecutive month of contraction in the sector's health, albeit only fractional. Output increased at a marginal pace that was nonetheless the fastest since May. In contrast, job creation remained moderate, and new orders continued to decline for the fifth consecutive month, reflecting the impact of high interest rates and inflation on consumer demand. On the price front, both input costs and output charges accelerated, though inflation rates remained historically low, well below levels seen over the past three years. Moreover, business confidence reached its highest level since April 2022, driven by optimism about an impending improvement in demand conditions."

Talk about some creative language and reporting! Does the writer of that blurb even know the meaning of the phrase "historically low"?
I guess for a 27 year old, "history" just started in 2020.
