Why US Factory Capacity Is Running at 82 Percent in 2026
from US Economy with Fexingo: American GDP, Federal Spending, and Domestic Markets · host Fexingo
In this episode of US Economy with Fexingo, hosts Lucas and Luna examine why US industrial capacity utilization has climbed to 82 percent in mid-2026, the highest level since 2018. They break down what this number means for inflation, business investment, and the Fed's next move. Lucas explains how the 82 percent threshold historically signals pricing pressure, and why this time might be different due to reshoring and automation. They reference the latest CPI and PPI data, and discuss how the small-cap surge connects to domestic manufacturing. A focused, data-driven conversation for anyone tracking the real economy behind the headlines. #CapacityUtilization #FactoryOutput #IndustrialProduction #USManufacturing #Reshoring #Inflation #FederalReserve #CPI #PPI #SmallCaps #FedPolicy #SupplyChain #Automation #Economics #USEconomy #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #LucasAndLuna Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
