E-mail(Reuters) - Manufacturing industries in the U.S. upper Midwest contracted further in September, prompted by a pullback in production and employment amid ongoing U.S.-China trade tensions, a private survey released on Monday showed.
An index developed by Marquette University and published by the Institute for Supply Management-Milwaukee, which measure factory activities in parts of Wisconsin and the Illinois area, fell to 45.41 in September from 47.29 in August.
A reading below 50 means the region's manufacturing sector is contracting.
