World wide manufacturing is up, reported the Wall Street Journal today.
The article focused on growth in the U.S. too, citing the Institute for Supply Managment's most recent report that stated purchasing rose to the highest level since April 2006.
One of the big boys, General Electric, recently announced big orders for avionics, wind and power turbines, the article stated.
But with all that good news, job growth is not expected. Economist polled by the Down Jones Newswires estimated 10,000 jobs were lost last month, though that total is the fewest in two years. The official total will be announced Friday by the U.S. Department of Labor.
