Why Industrial Production Is Leading GDP in 2026

from Economic Indicators with Fexingo: GDP, CPI, PMI, and Reading the Macro Data · host Fexingo

GDP is growing at 1.6 percent annualized, but a less-watched number—industrial production—is telling a more interesting story. Lucas and Luna dig into why the factory sector is outperforming services, what capacity utilization at 76.1 percent means for inflation, and how the Iran conflict is reshaping manufacturing supply chains. They connect the dots between the ECB rate hike, the 4.2 percent CPI print, and the real economy humming beneath the headlines. Plus: why this matters for your portfolio as small caps rally 3.1 percent in a week. #IndustrialProduction #GDP #CapacityUtilization #Manufacturing #SupplyChain #IranConflict #ECB #CPI #SmallCaps #Russell2000 #Economics #MacroData #Inflation #FederalReserve #IndustrialOutput #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #EconomicIndicators Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
