The industrial output data is false. It accounts for products manufactured by American companies but foreign produced.

I was pretty sure you were full of shit when you posted this comment but I couldn't find the relevant documentation on the Fed site. So I emailed the author of the article and also asked via the Fed website whether their industrial production figures included non-US output of US firms. I received replies from both and the answer is that the figures are for US production only thereby confirming you are full of shit.
