Ignore the Fake "Manufacturing Recession" Narrative - and Buy These Two Stocks to Profit Posted on January 3, 2020 by Shah Gilani Some major media outlets are trying to plant in your head that a "manufacturing recession" in the United States will sink the economy and the stock market. A New York Times headline from this summer pushed the idea that a manufacturing recession will infect the economy: "U.S. Manufacturing Slowed in August in Latest Sign of Economic Weakness."
