OUTPUT SLOWDOWN; A RISK TO MANUFACTURING

Sustainable manufacturing growth is not only consequential for sustainable growth but also very prominent for the labor market. The alteration in the manufacturing sector is very reactive to global and domestic matters. In October last year, President Trump apprised and accused Jay Powell and Federal Reserve while keeping Dollar Index and Fed rate so strong, which eventually distress the U.S. manufacturing sector.

Another paramount risk to the manufacturing sector is the trade war between the U.S. and China. Through they outreach to the fractional consonance but the trade confrontation has already chewed away at U.S. growth rate, predominantly incapacitating the manufacturing sector. The U.S. has struck tariffs on Chinese commodities, the value of 550 billion USD. China, in turn, has placed tariffs on US commodities, worth of 185 billion USD.

The most prominent risk to the U.S. manufacturing sector is the outburst of lethal coronavirus (COVID -19). The deadly COVID -19 outspread over 100 countries, over 100000 infections and over 5000 death added another dread to the U.S. manufacturing sector.

Besides this, another anxiety brings about by COVID -19 is the slump in the global stock market. The outspreading of COVID-19 outside China resulted in a stoppage in the stock market. The slump in the stock market placed additional coercion in the manufacturing sector. 

Finally, the Fed rate also subsidizes to the downturn in the manufacturing sector. Higher Fed rate diverts speculators to safe securities such as T-bills, which further intensifying coercion on the manufacturing sector and layoffs in the job market.

The recession in the manufacturing sector not only saddened the U.S.’s economic performance but also offending the job market. Many people have vanished their job during the recession, resulted by the trade conflict, COVID-19 and high Fed rate. To make optimal rational expectation it is significant for individuals as well for businesses to anticipate future events more optimally.
